2:13 PM: this morning i very slightly lightened the dark grey in the bottom center of the painting, so that your eye isn’t drawn there, allowing the rest of the composition to breathe
i captured some of the overhead shots of sabelenka anisimova from yesterday’s us open final, and am preparing to incorporate them into my next painting, or perhaps, series of paintings.
5 shots from yesterday’s us open final
afternoon moonlight, 42x18” oil on portrait linen, tweaked this morning
