Sunset Regatta by artsygang

Sunset Regatta

Inspired by a combination of watching the sunrise over the marina this morning, Paul Klee's geometrics and Edouard Cribier's yachts. Jackie

@grammyn all from my head Katy! thank you

I tried to get a graduation of light in the sky and sea, and wanted it to be a sunrise, but the sun is in the west In the picture so had to be setting!!

This is super amazing! Terrific. I love it that the boats and the sun even have reflections (except the left one :D )
Making the sun a square... that's genius!
Great work, lady!
Are these watercolours?
As Katy said: you show-off!!!!!!! :D
I would show off as well if this was mine!

don't you just love those little triangles! you did really well in combining the two "almost the same but also very different" styles of klee and cribier and to have your own subject, you show-off! 😂 big ACES to you, kiddo.

This is so cool. I love the colours

A great blend of Klee and Cribier. Is that the sun that we were looking for this morning?

This turned so well, I like the details and the colors. The gradation of warm colors to cool really imitate a marine sunrise. Great reflections of the boat hulls, too.

@theredcamera thanks Ellen, your dachshund kicked started the creative process

@wakelys it is!! I flipped it in my mind and made the tide come in

@salza thank you Sally, not a lot of blending went On!

@monikozi Ha!!! The brown sails are reflected but boat's hull burnt out by the sun!! It's acrylics, on cheap paper as it started as a draft doodle, but after drawing all those triangles it stopped being a doodle!

@summerfield thanks Vikster! Have emailed you some photos, I'll have another go at it too, but I warn you watercolours of that scene are so ubiquitous here!!

@jacqbb most kind Jacq, thank you, I had great fun, but relaxed all afternoon

@grammyn well a bit of thought! I didn't go overboard and I can see my errors!!

@casablanca notice I didn't show fronts and backs of yachts!!
