Quick update: I’ve been working on this piece off and on for the past couple of weeks, and I feel like it’s finally getting somewhere. It’s building on the sketch I made a few months ago.
In my reference photo, there are electrical lines that may or may not make it into the painting. In a way that kind of detracts from the idyllic setting created by the fog. At the same time, it emphasizes the way man has imposed his own structure on the world.
