Flea Market Guard



Flea Market Guard

I was taking pictures at the flea market and just happened to catch this composition. I left out a lot of detail in the shadow area to contrast with the sunlit left side. I added heavier paint in the sunlit areas to make the space come forward  and thinner paint on the right for the opposite reason. Your eye goes to the only thing that is different which is the color of the guard's vest making it the center of interest. This painting received Best of Show at the Kerrville annual members show, 2016.
