#46 - Through Fog

Through Fog
11x14 oil on linen canvas
#46

This is a painting which I enlarged from an 8x10 plein air piece I did while in Acadia National Park, Maine, for an Artist Residency.  I feel like the original plein air piece captured a bit more of the feeling of that cold, damp, foggy morning.  But I am going to sit with this painting for a while and see if I need to do any tweaking to it.  I am going to donate either the original or this one to Acadia NP.  One of the requirements for Artist Residencies is that you donate a piece of artwork within one year.  I am leaning towards donating the larger one, framed, but, we'll see!

I like the feel of this... it is definitely a foggy morning! Serene, too. Lucky you for the residency!
