This is an acrylic painting with a very chaotic landscape.
To calm it down, I wanted to add a focal point.
It ended up being a lighthouse.
It made it just a little bit calmer.
But still too chaotic.
But I don’t want to spend more time on it.
So this is how it ended up:
Anyway, I hope you’re doing alright, and that you’re having a good day!
Love this. I like the lighthouse. Lighthouses are actually very wonderful, a huge and large idea.
Thanks! I’m very glad you do. They are wonderful, indeed 😊
Personally, I don’t see chaos: there is a fore-, middle- and background in the «traditional» way of doing landscape art. Isn’t it the medium that makes the painting look rough, for lack of a better word? I like it!
The medium makes it rough, for sure. But I’m glad you don’t find it too chaotic. I should probably get some more contrasts into the coloours, and brighten it up a bit. I guess that could be a solution 🙂
What size? Imagine in real life? Did you use a palette knife? Think it really adds to the chaos feeling.
It’s an A4 size, using just palette knives. I think I need to calm it down a bit for my next attempt 🙂
