Ocean Abstract #3 for SD Coastkeeper

Here's a pic of the finished piece in its custom frame at The Frame Maker shop yesterday.

Ocean Abstract #3 by John Hiemstra, scenic artist


The final layers of varnish, plaster and wax mute the bright colors I started with on the recycled wood lengths (see last post), but still allow them to glow through the more opaque bits of glaze. I'm glad I made enough "raw materials" for more of these so i can work out a few things that occurred to me since its completion earlier this week.
