Several years ago, I started this as an exercise. I wanted to see if I could technically combine three photographs into one painting. I figured that someday (hopefully) someone was going to ask me to do something like this. This is oil on canvas 24" x 36".
The exercise proved to be a doozy for me. I come back to it from time to time and try to apply what I have learned. As you can see, there is still much to do. I just consider it a long work in progress. I will post the painting and then a couple of the photos in use. Maybe someone could comment on the overall effectiveness of the composition and particularly the horizon.
