Capturing the essence of a sky through painting proves to be a challenging endeavor. Despite my attempts at rendering simple and vibrant skies, I find myself falling short of truly encapsulating the vastness and beauty of what lies above. These attempts stem from photographs taken during my vacations.
One of the joys of painting lies in the freedom to embellish or simplify elements as desired. For instance, in the piece below, I introduced a surfer absent from the original photo. It's essential to seek reference images to grasp perspective accurately. However, translating this perspective onto canvas can sometimes prove daunting, yet the endeavor is always worthwhile.
Persistence and dedication form the backbone of painting. It's through continual practice and unwavering perseverance that one hones their craft.
