Colourful Sunset.

[Ern007]

This was not supposed to be a sunset, but by accident yellow went on pink, obviously turned orange. So sunset it is.

So this is an impressionist picture. I have took licence and broke the rules of light and dark. I wanted a bright picture so took artistic licence.

Great colours Ern, I’m on that Tropical island already. Xxx👍🤗

[Ern007 in reply to sassy59]

Thank's Carole. I could do with a bit of that sun. Maybe soon xxx

Now listen here Ern there are NO rules for artists, your painting of the sunset and beach is beautiful, there is a tranquility about it.

BERNARDINE 🌹🥰

[Ern007 in reply to djbctla]

Thank you Bernardine, I am glad you find it tranquil, I found that painting it.

Gorgeous colours and the accidental sunset doesn't look accidental! You've brought another ray of sunshine to a soggy Birmingham day! Thanks Ern. Love and hugs. Jan xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Handel]

Absolutely beautiful Ern. A sight for sore eyes.can (almost) feel the sand and hear the sea rippling.the dolphins really add to it .love the colours ❤️xxxx

[Ern007 in reply to Patk1]

Thank you Pat - Would eb nice on that beach with Ice Cream xxx

[Patk1 in reply to Ern007]

It certainly would.id love to be there.its very atmospheric and inviting x

[Ergendl in reply to Patk1]

I agree. If you want a picture to look like a photo, take a photo. An artist's take on a landscape says more than just a photo.

[Issy22]

Beautiful painting Ern I wish I could transport myself there instead of rainy and cold England

[Ern007 in reply to Issy22]

Same. horrid weather in Lancashire .

[Issy22]

same in London

[HungryHufflepuff]

that’s what artistic license is for. It’s the artist’s prerogative to paint things as they see it. This is such a cheerful painting. Thank you for the sunshine !

[Ern007 in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Thank you HungryHufflepuff - Welcome HH, I think we all need as much sunshine as we can get this winter, sure been a long one..

[Welshcatlady]

Yet again a lovely picture from you, it reminds me of a holiday I had last year on the Pacific Coast of Mexico, the sunsets there were amazing, there were Humpback Whales in the bay, but your dolphins are near enough! 😁 Thank you for sharing Ern. ❤️

[Ern007 in reply to Welshcatlady]

Thank you Welshcatlady - Welcome.

[Bingo88]

That's a beautiful picture Ern007. It's got so much detail in it. And the way you have the colours changing from the sea upto the sky. Hope your keeping as well as possible. Brian

[Ern007 in reply to Bingo88]

Hi Brian, Been for eye injection, a lot of fluid. Nurse wants me to change drug , but and used to and ok with LUCENTIS - £750 a shot. Thank you for comment , I had a magenta sky and the yellow with that made that orange. - hope you are keeping as well as you can/

[Bingo88 in reply to Ern007]

Hope everything goes well for you Ern007. It's not good getting older. I have been diagnosed with Corneal Dystrophy now and have to put eye drops in 5 times a day now. Just hope they are helping

[Ern007 in reply to Bingo88]

Thank you. I have AR Wet macular Degeneration - Require injections life long, they are changing my injections, I can't see a reason.

Hope your drops work for you, no joke having eye problems.

[Alberta56]

I don't know about rules, but I know what I like. That looks a lovely place to be. xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Alberta56]

Thank you - Rules only go so far, I like a picture to be seen at it's best, otherwise pointless xxx

[watergazer]

Lovely place to be Ern. Relaxing x

[Ern007 in reply to watergazer]

Thank you watergazer, - Yea and warm to x

[Nula2]

Lovely thank you Ern, what are the rules about light & dark? Whatever they are breaking them has worked for this scene 😊👍. Pleased you challenged the change of drug. If it works why change it?? Take care xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Nula2]

Well the sun was setting and the palms Silhouetted against the sky.

I did not want the leaves green, as that would have been to much - However I did not follow through with dark on beach as I wanted a bright picture, so I took artistic licence to paint that way. xx Thank you and take care - my eyes are not right, ARMV is progressive. But I manage to drive, and paint, find reading difficult . xxx

[Nula2 in reply to Ern007]

Ah I see (what a silly rule 😅). So sorry about your eyes ☹️. Take great care ❤️xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Nula2]

Thank you - Not a rule more a convention,. My eyes, been on injections over 5 years, but I manage, - I do take care - I fell down stairs trice, the second time full length, then we knew we needed same level accommodation , rather have that easier. I did fall here, caused by not wearing slipper, I walked on wood floor and down I went. I take no more chances - You also take great care xxx

[Nula2 in reply to Ern007]

Oh goodness! Falling full length of the stairs - how scary that must have been! Good you're all on one level now. And you have so much to deal with health wise. So pleased that you still find painting a distraction from it all. 🙂❤️xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Nula2]

First hall I was able to twist and no damage of than carpet burn, Second full from top to bottom thats when I was advised to move. Now I take a lot of care. Painting I used to paint watercolours 35 years ago, then my work with \hours so long, I could not find time to paint, then when i could I started paining acrylics - Never looked looked back xx

[Nula2 in reply to Ern007]

Yes wise to move. Think also we have (well know I do) to learn to concentrate on what we are doing rather than what we need to do next. I have the attention span of a goldfish nowadays 🙄. Take great care of yourself. So pleased for you (& all of us here on the site) that you took up painting again 👍😊 xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Nula2]

Moving was right for us - I like the village life. I had reservations but there was no need.

It was strange how I got back in art - When we moved I took (I think) some DVD's to a charity shop, they was a new box of pastels and Anne bought them for me, I never did use them but, it kindled something, I sent for canvases and paint /brushes to Amazon and I was off again but with a brand new medium. Acrylic.

Look after yourself Nula and Take Care xxx

[Mavary]

I’d like to be there.

[Ern007 in reply to Mavary]

Thank you, yes a bit of sun would be good.

[Oshgosh]

this is a cute picture Ern. How are you today ?

[Ern007 in reply to Oshgosh]

Thank you. I had eye injection this morning , went well - bit chesty, otherwise fine .

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to Ern007]

Il glad to know the injection went ok. Hoping you feel better tomorrow 👍

[Ern007 in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Thanks probably, it was that cold early this morning, Ice spray did not melt the ice, Anne went and got warm water, only way we could clear the frost .

[Oshgosh in reply to Ern007]

Take care of your chest.

The cold winds are playing havoc with mine.I don’t go out without a scarf

[Ern007 in reply to Oshgosh]

I just dug my scarf out, was freezing first thing this morning when I went for injection.
