A new painting.......

This is an acrylic, on a 20 X 24 canvas.  I took the photo in Toronto recently, when I was visiting the AGO with my cousin Beth.  This lovely home was so stately!  I took the photo from close up, so it towered over me.  I enjoyed painting it immensely, with all the angles and shapes and values that went together to give the house a pleasing 3D shape.  I love to make a canvas come alive with depth and form.  I took photos of the process along the way, which might be interesting to take a look at, below the finished piece here.

Just checking out your blog again. Still really like this painting. And it reminds me of our day wandering around the galleries.
