2007
16x20 inches
acrylic on canvas
prints- [link]

This is the only painting I've ever done that I used the grid technique on. I drew up a preliminary, but I couldn't get the sketch on the canvas to look right, so I used a grid to transfer it.

I got the effect on the background using sponges. The bubbles weren't actually a part of the original layout for the painting, but I added them after it was nearly finished... it just didn't look right without them.

i could swear there's water on my computer screen *can't understand why it's not there when i scroll down to comment* really, it's that realistic.

The number of times I give up and the number of failures were the same.
The data that can be derived
from this unpleasant experience,
proves that the number of times that I didn't give up and the number of times I succeed were the same.

nice work... you're right, the bubbles are a great touch, and the background looks wonderful

Thank you! Yes, I really liked the way the background turned out... for me, underwater scenes just don't look right without the random streams of bubbles.
