At sea

'At sea' acrylic painting.
and here's a slightly different version where I've increased the colour saturation using i-Photos edit function. Its a pity the original doesn't look as good.

This was painted on an old scrap of rather absorbent grey cardboard. I seem to be attracted to blues and greens at the moment. I planned to paint a figure of Poseidon, or a buoy, or a message in a bottle somewhere in this picture, but wasn't sure I had the skill to do that, so just pretend they're all there, or take your pick!  Painting this made me realise how hard it is to paint wavy and wiggly lines when you're not completely relaxed, but it's still very enjoyable just making a line.
