Stuck

Help?
I am just a little bit stuck.


Work in progress
Where do you go from here?
 I have some ideas, do you?
I think photos really help as it can magnify problems.
What do you think .....
is a diet for the top ship in order?
I am hoping by reducing the size of the top ship it will help with the composition of this painting
Feedback would be great
What would you do?

I really, really like this. Maybe reduce it just a tad and tone down the white sails but that's all. I wouldn't chane much it's fantastic!!

Hi - to me it looks like the figure could be "blowing" the sail boats across the painting. Try laying a piece of acetate or tracing paper over the piece and see what would happen to the composition if you used "wind" to connect the 3 somehow. You may not have to "shrink" one of the ships. Hope this helps

Thank you so much for the feed back !!!! So far
I am toning down the sails and playing with the wind!

Very cool beginning,I'm loving it so far. When I first looked at it,I thought the same thing as Karen,she looks to be blowing. What about something to resemble water at the bottom? Hope this helps alittle.

Thanks Buffy I am going to try water. I am figuring out water witout introducing another colour. Lol this is more difficult then I thought! Thank you for your feedback!

If I were you I would draw some black curvy lines to tie it all together! Patsy from

It's looking good.
Sometimes I just walk away from an art work if I've been working on it to long. I take a break, do something else, and come back refreshed.

Cheers..

I am going to draw the black curving lines but for now I am having a rest and will come back to this painting later!
