Illustration Friday



The word for Illustration Friday this week is Sail.
I thought the gouache and ink wash-off technique would be pretty fun to use.

Very nice. Love your texturized painting style. Love that you used minimal colors.

Nice strong color and shape. I also like the air before and after the Sail, how the air/wind seems to be there just for this boat.

Nice colors and texture. I love the simplicity, those broad strokes, the thick waves and the suggestion of a sailboat.

This is beautiful. It's a different style than what I've seen you do before and you know I like that!!!! Your choice of color is excellent. The picture seems to move. This is just great work Mitchowl!!
