Very nice. Love the depth to it as well as the colors you used. It looks like a small painting, 8x10 or so?

Thanks Will. It's 5x7. This is one of those paintings that was difficult to color match in Photoshop once it was scanned, but it's fairly close to the original.

this is awesome. reminds me so much of william turner, with the mysterious, fading haze, and vortex perspective. i have some info on my blog regarding william turner as i am instructor at an art museum. i find it fascinating that you can paint such a vast painting on tiny canvas! my norm canvas is 30"x40". visit my blog: http://www.vickiemarsango.blogspot.com and website: http://www.pizazzoart.boundlessgallery.com

Vickie- thanks for stopping by with your kind comments. I just watched the Power of Art DVD that featured Turner a couple of days ago and found it very interesting.

Gwen- thanks very much. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to more soon. I really enjoy painting these atmospheric landscapes.
