"Washington Coast at La Push" Seascape painting by Robin Weiss

"Washington Coast at La Push"  15x30 oil on canvas  $1400
Available through the Scott Milo Gallery  360-293-6938

 

When I was looking through my photos from a recent painting hike to Second Beach on the Washington Coast the design of shapes in a series of images taken on the edge of this tide pool really caught my eye! I  painted a small study and it was just as striking so I decided to take it larger and longer. 

The challenge for me in a painting like this is to attempt what might seem impossible. To paint the illusion of air between the viewer and the distant objects. In other words the atmospheric distance. You do it by carefully adjusting edges and color. Bluer and softer in the distance, warmer with more contrast as you move into the foreground.

See this painting in person along with many others at the Scott Milo Gallery in March.  Joining me as featured artist for this exhibition will be Rowen Carey, Lorna Libert, Bithia Bjurman, Donna Nevitt Radtke and Ron Radtke.
