A Rainy Evening

As I was returning from the office on friday, the rainy evening inspired me to capture the reflections on street onto a canvas. And thus was brought up the idea for my second painting.

first halt

rainy-day (9x12" oil on canvas)

This is the final version and is still to dry. I was too impatient and so putting up this bad photo. I didn't get the reflections the way I wanted and signature came out too big and funky but overall, I really love this one.

This was completed in little more than 2 days precisely. I am still not very good at getting the layers correctly in single time and therefore need to wait between the layers to dry up to correct my mistakes, otherwise this is probably a one-day project for experienced artists.

How do you create an image in water? Do you sketch that, or just smear the top, so that it becomes a reflection?
