This is my painting City
Road. I wanted to maintain the
shapes and forms as well as show the vehicles on the road. In this painting, the front green car is
similar in color to the building it overlaps. This creates unity and movement
from the foreground car to the background. The red hue (color) of the streetcar
is also repeated in the taillights of the green car, the reflection on the
road, the foreground light and in the two signs. The yellow hue is repeated. Repetition gives the painting unity and
movement. The view is Toronto at Dundas St., the south east side and Spadina.
This is a digital painting using mainly traditional oil painting
techniques and a painterly approach. I used virtual brushes and paints on
coarse cotton canvas (Corel Painter 12 and Wacom Intuos5 drawing pen and
tablet). I worked with mainly impasto and oil brushes.
