Foggy October Gearheart Marsh


"Foggy October Gearheart Marsh" by Andrew Daniel
9" x 13" (23cm x 30cm) oil on wood panel 
 available in my online shop

I have been dreaming of building painting platform to go on top of my car for 15 years. Yesterday I decided I would go ahead and make it, instead of painting. Today I got to test it out. It was so fun to be up so high! The elevation stretches the foreground and middle-ground, so that I don't have a small band of land and a huge sky. Next, I am going to make some painting panels that are short and wide, like a panoramic photo so I can get the compositions I have been desiring!
