Swans

[P. Barrie]

Oils on canvas, 16” x 20”, painted from photo ref found online

Using my iPad, I convert the pic of the painting to B&W to check values. A handy tool.

Beautiful. The swans are so graceful. Love the ripples in the water and the distorted reflections of the swans.

Again, thank you for all your encouragement!
The growing season here is narrowing down to lettuce and greens so I will began painting again hopefully before the snow flies.
