    I just understood your comment about the person sitting in front of the opening. So true, oups!

    Maybe the colours needs to be a bit more distant with less red and toned down a bit. Guess I’ll have to try it again!

      I don’t know if I would tone down the red but I don’t really paint too much anymore so I can’t give you a solid answer. This might sound cheesy but you could look at how others use alcoves in their art (that’s from the movie Old) but also maybe how other painters utilize light/dark to transform their ocean scenes. But I don’t have actual answers someone else might?

      Or you could find them along the way =)! Gl!

        Wow that second painting really is something 💖.

        Inspiring!

        And maybe I can figure out how to move forward better, thanks!
