City silhouettes.

[waheednasir]

hi there, long time.... i hope everyone is doing fine here.

sharing my digital painting, "City silhouettes" done in painter - tablet. references were consulted for sketches that i did before painting this from scratch.
i went for simplicity, atmosphere and a painterly look and to have a nice scene to look at when finished....

thanks for your visit. best to all.

Fantastic piece really! Great sense of depth achieved...Old school, Turner composition and dramatic light is transposed to futuristic subject very nice... like in Turners paintings, I see here also some deep optimistic and warm feeling under the foggy, dark surface...

Now this is what I am talking about, this is the strong work I am use to from you. Nice composition, horizontal in nature with a sense of depth, but not to much to interfere with the horizontal emphisis. Pinched on the right and opening up on the left perhaps gives a feeling of freedom/escape, working well with the warm colors and hope d.sign was mentioning. Great stuff!

I always appreciate d.signs post becuase he will usually mention some architect or artist that I am not really familiar with. Especially with names I am terrible, so I recognized some of William Turners painints once I looked him up, but the name wasn't ringing a bell at first. Thanks d.sign

thanks for lovely compliments...d.sign and russell....

yes J.M.W. Turner, wonderul european artist, he alongwith another fine artist, from the same region and time, Constable, produced some breathtaking work, esp. landscapes, they both were very different from eachother as for their paintings and treatment. Turner's oils and watercolor scenes depict some strong work, landscapes and emotions. ive studied him really closely as he is one of my favorites, alongwith many others, esp. the impressionists.

im no near, but im glad that my this work of mine reminds you of the great Turner.

many thanks once again. happy u like it.
