Roll: Part I


18" x 36" oil

Roll is an interesting painting. It's the first time I've shown this much wave, but I couldn't get away from that fabulous turquoise, the linear qualities of the composition, and how the wave cuts diagonally through the space. This painting's got a long way to go...I hope you like it so far.

Thanks to Bonnie-Jean for sending me the photo.

Lovely colours and composition, very interesting the close-up of the painting, details are like gold for the eye of the artist.
Best, Marco.

LOVE IT! I've been waiting for a piece like this it seems like your work has been heading this way. :) Starting with "Still" which became "High tide" :)You are definitely making me homesick. :)
