City Silhouettes, 8 x 6, SOLDLast week Plein Air Austin met at Ladybird Lake to paint off the pedestrian bridge. I was too late to catch the sunrise, but the Austin city skyline was still shimmering in silhouette. It's nice to be up early.

Hi Laurel - this is absolutely gorgeous. It does shimmer.
ReplyDeleteHi Laurel,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. You've really caught that far away soft light. It's so atmospheric.

Very nice! I don't think I've ever seen a cityscape from you. Or maybe I've just somehow missed some along the way. Anyway, I personally hate to get up early (read: before noon), but I like what YOU can accomplish.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. the simplicity of the design and harmony evoke Whistler. Think you are on to something special!
ReplyDeleteHi Laurel,
ReplyDeleteI love this so much. I see this kind of view all the time and wonder how to handle it. You have done a perfect job as usual. It's just magnificent in its abstraction and simplicity.
XOXOXOXOXOBarbara
Yay! Cityscapes from Laurel! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThe thumbnail of this and its abstraction kept snagging my eye. Then, aha!, I finally made the connection. Whistler's "The Bridge At Battersea". I see Hope Cunningham had the same aha.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. You could do a lot worse than being compared to Whistler!
