Minimalist seascapes

Seascape 1, acrylic on canvas board, 30 x 23 cm

Seascape 2, acrylic on  stretched canvas, 50 x  40 cm (n/a)
My first attempts with acrylics. So far no big surprises. It is easy to make smooth color transitions, similar to the wet-on-wet watercolor washes. Paints dry fast so no risk of fussing and fiddling. And no need to preserve the white for the crashing waves. I am not sure I know what I am doing, but I've been enjoying it, and that's what matters.

ho guardato i tuoi lavori che non avevo visto...Belli e complicati!
Molto belli anche i ritratti!
Ora ho visto il tuo approccio con l'acrilico e il risultato è davvero apprezzabile. Ciao, ciao, Floriana

Wow, great first experiments! I can imagine how satisfying it must be not to think about preserving the whites. :)
