Reflections

I've been trying something new.  I love the reflections in the water that I see as I walk.
I am trying to capture them. Truly difficult.
I had watched a couple of videos. The white acrylic is what I used to simulate the water.



Pictures (Photographs) below of each pic above.


Be sure to visit the other Paint Party Friday artists.
Blessings,
Janet

  11. Janet, I have trouble doing effective reflections. Your paintings are delightful and I am fascinated by the strange bird with pink feathers and a spoon bill. Is this a muscovy duck? One wound up on my front porch a week ago. I had never seen one before. "Mine" didn't have pink on it, though. Thanks for visiting my blog.
