Title: My Other Hobby
Post by: Sandman on May 29, 2012, 06:09:49 PM
I was tempted to put this in the outdoor photography, but other than me taking the picture of the canvas, it did not really go there.  I just finished this as a commission for a colleague at work who wanted something with a west coast flavour.  It is the Royal Hudson on the Squamish run along the Sea to Sky.

Nice, I like the colours you used.

Now if you can paint one of Christy Clark going to jail for her involvement in the BC rail deal, I'd buy a copy.

It is an acrylic on canvas and was inspired from a photo in an old magazine the client gave me.

Very nice Sandman. Plenty of detail, great perspective and awesome colours.  My wife paints so I know the words but seriously, good stuff!  That background is perfect, you nailed Howe Sound :)
