Artwork >> Leonard Shane >> Raging Sea


"Raging Sea" Leonard Shane totally free flowing watercolor painting - 18 Inches x 24 Inches	I did this painting in 3 hours in an art class and came out of the session totally exhausted because I simply allowed the creation to just flow unimpeded and drag me along. The art paper seemed to literally have water flowing, never being allowed to dry for the whole 3 hour duration. In one hand was the brush, dripping with water, and in the other a sponge constantly dabbing away at wet areas, trying to control the flow of colors continually moving around on the surface. When I look at the painting, the scene of a wild untamed sea reflects back to me the unchecked passion that I experienced throughout its creation. The soft but dynamic blues and greens that pervade this scene, contrast just so delicately against the white areas that were left when I erased the 'drawing gum' I randomly applied to the paper before applying the first coat of paint. I find this technique creates marvellous unexpected results once a painting is completed. I love this piece!

Cards
You phoned our school about buying cards for year end functions etc.....so I thought I would go on your website and take a look. I really liked some of your paintings especially "the Breaking Surf "and "Reflections". Not prepared to buy any right now but I will keep it in mind.

your artwork
I saw one of your paintings in an Esquires coffee shop and quite liked it. Checked out the website, and just wanted to pass along how much I enjoy Reflections and The Sea Comes Alive (I think), as well as your watercolour land/sea scapes. I'll start saving my pennies! Cheers and best wishes, keep up the great work!
