My current freeform canvas is of one of my favorite places. Deception Pass State Park in Washington State was a place that I took my dogs for a romp on the beach or where I went for a little self care from a stressful job. I was a few weeks into this project when I realized it was about more than just remembering a favorite place. Both of my dogs had to be put down earlier this year and I think it has something to do with remembering my time with them as well.
This canvas is the same size as the Coral Canyon but in landscape mode. This was the first time that I had sketched out how I wanted it all to look even before I got the canvas.
Deception Pass is notorious for its swirling currents which I wanted to capture.
Once again, creating the background is incredibly fun even though the majority of it will be covered.
