Sketch Painting by Brian Sindler: Maple Frame

A lilac sky takes up almost the whole picture, and the water gets just a ribbon at the bottom.

Sketch Painting; Maple Frame, Number 19, is an acrylic on board by Brian Sindler, made between 2020 – 2024 CE. Small sketches on board are generally made quickly to record a particular light or mood rather than a finished scene. Soft clouds in lavender and cream are brushed across the board, brighter in one patch where the sun seems to press through. Along the bottom, a thin gray-blue band of water holds two tiny white points of light. The paint is smooth and thin. It is framed in maple, 7 inches wide and 7 high, with an image of 6 by 6.

Most of the view is weather, and the weather is calm.
