The Studio Atelier challenges are always a bit different than some of the others. This is the second one I've done for them that was a busy scene. I love the busy scenes and I love to paint a piece of life that is in action. No one is posed and no one is facing the camera, which is good. That would make it more of a portrait, and that is a totally different challenge for me! I did take a smaller slice of the photo for my painting and tried to focus on the shapes and colors.
This actually took a bit longer to do than I thought it would, but there are numerous shapes and many different color shifts. But those red umbrellas - those are what captured my attention in the first place so they had to be in the painting and be prominent.

What an amazing work of art this is Nancie!
Nancie, this is fabulous. I always admire artists that brave the busier scenes or even city scenes. I think they simply overwhelm me! You have done this so well! I like that the people are all facing away, going into the painting.
Wow, there is so much going on in your painting! It has so many wonderful design qualities and you handled them well.It is amazing.
This is amazing! I love the colors and composition. Really makes the viewer want to be there.
