6X8 oil on canvas panel $100 (see PURCHASING for framing offer)
This study is from a secluded nook on Town Lake, in Austin.  The composition was a fun exercise using the “golden section”, also known as “the divine proportion”.  A very fascinating and useful way to approach composing.  The amazing ratio or proportion determined by 1.618 is found throughout nature.  It’s represented mathematically as PHI, and the related “fibonacci sequence”.  If you haven’t looked into this phenomenon before, prepare to be awed.

  1. Great shadow work on the water. Your use of color gives the painting such life.

  2. Thank you, Pat. I visited your site, and was very impressed by your paintings. I admire your ability to combine delicate detail with boldness of brushwork, and your color is very nicely tuned. Congratulations on your lovely work!
