MOON DANCE Oil

A large gallery wrapped canvas. This contemporary style of presentation where the painted image is carefully extended around the edges of the stretched canvas means that the painting can be hung without any framing.

A full moon throws a cascade of light over the sea and the wet sand of the beach. Here is a night scene that is fairly light with a multitude of different greys.

The canvas surface is quite smooth which produces a painted surface that is also fairly smooth. The painting technique is realistic although there is just a small hint of impressionism in the brushwork.
