oil/stretched canvas
11x14
I made two trips to
the Village of Lisburn to capture this street scene. I really liked the
structures sitting on the road, as well as the curving road. Unfortunately,
the height of the canvas is too tall for my composition. I tried to "lower" the
height by darkening the top of the sky and adding more clouds. I didn't like it.
I finally decided to add telephone lines for some interest. There were many
lines crossing the road and I thought they were legitimately part of the scene.
I was timid about applying the paint . I may darken them a bit.
