Moonlit Surf (B&W) - Bill Alexander

Dirk1968 19 Dec 2023

At the end of this month I'm here on this page for a year. I would like to thank all those who have supported me and wish you a Merry Christmas! πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ

I painted this painting some time ago but in the original colors, in a smaller format and on request, as a gift for Christmas, this time a little larger in black & white. As in the original , started with the dry black canvas and with, in this case, Ivory black oil paint as a primer,titanium white ,with a knife tip cadmium yellow in the eye of the wave. One of the quicker to paint paintings by Bill .Not so complicated but is a lot of fun. As always, totally fresh from 30 minutes ago. I hope the reflections are not too strong and you like it. My version of Moonlit Surf by Bill Alexander in black & white.
Canvas, 24 x 30 cm( 9,45 x 11,80 inch)2x Black gesso , grinded 240/400, no liquids, time 1,5 hours .
The second picture below is slightly modified and after more drying time.

That looks so easy but is very complicated. Good job!

Ich sag mal schwarz weiß war etwas komplizierter als das was ich im Original Farbspiel gemalt hatte . Irgendwie ist der Kontrast schwieriger herzustellen aber okay war das erste B&W.Thank you so much Tom πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ή
