Getting better at structuring clouds. This concept came to light as a follow up from the last boat related painting I did.

Basic concept: A fisherman sits tranquilly in his boat in pure motionless water with the exception of a few ripples from the boat. A vertical moon beam breaks from the clouds at just the right spot to capture the very early morning fisherman.

speed painting effect/technique used: Here we see an emphasis on reflection. Techniques that are used to generate this are "mirroring". This form of visual manipulation flips your initial image, and can speed up your over all concept, but it is obviously not meant for every concept. Mirroring, IMO, is best used in water pieces, like this one, to quickly grasp that reflection of an object or space it captures without re-working it on the other side. saves you time, and gives you a cleaner, more realistic effect. I encourage you guys to give it a go when your concept can allow it!
