Framed sea
Childe Hassam
Charles Walter Simpson, English
Sea framed by rocks. A seascape can easily look lopsided if the cliffs or rocks are on one side only. In both of these paintings there is a path along which the eye is led into the scene.
I'm a sometimes artist based in Australia. This is a place to share images of the landscape painting genre that have caught my eye whilst exploring the internet and art books.
I have a special interest in the oil medium but may post some works in other media from time to time. I'll try to include some painting tips that I've picked up over the years.
