That was the compositional intent, Donna. It's Frank's son's house, but they have several of Frank Sr.'s paintings in there.
Thanks, Zen. By "real life" I meant the colors in the actual painting, not in the scene. I'm more of an Impressionist, so do not hold to fidelity to the scene at all. But what continues to disturb me is not being able to post a photo that's sufficiently faithful to the painting. I certainly know how to do it with the proper photography setup, which I no longer have available and don't want to invest in.Beautiful painting, I like the intense colors, much more than so-called "real life".
I hear you Bart, I have the same problem. I shoot mine with a digital and refine the image in Photoshop. I resign myself to considering that image as a separate entity than the painting...sort of a "non-fungible token"...in a size so small it's not worth downloading.
Well, thanks Ayin and everyone. Most people seem to be reacting here online and here in my area to the colors. Oddly, that's where I'm least satisfied, because I know what the house color actually is, so I guess I'm making the mistake of judging by perception of "accuracy".The colors are so brilliant. It's a stand-out piece.
