Oslo Fjord in oils.. Spring sunshine and tippety toes

This dinky landscape canvas has been in the flat since winter last year and have been wondering what to paint onto it. But the snow and rain didn't seem too cheery and the shape lends itself well to a big blue sky.


Although I like working with oils, they can be a bit faffy and the work of the devil to clean the brushes. In fact, I now have a fetching blue streak in my hair and one or toe blue toes after stepping on the corner of the canvas while it was outside drying...the sparrows did a wee dance across the sky too, their little toe prints aren't too noticeable and hopefully add to the scene. It needs some more colour and a bit of depth so will work on that, hope the seagulls don't decide to hop over it as well.
