Mapua outdoor painting

Here is the finished painting featured on John Burland's blog http://mainzdailyphoto.blogspot.com/

I left out the wharf in the end. I may do another with it included.
this one is little, 12 x 22 cm on board.

Mapua wharf

The larger of the 2 paintings, painted plein air - (from life).
this canvas is highly textured, which gained many comments from viewers who liked the effect.
A painting containing people, rare for me. :)
this one is 30 x 23 cm approx.
Acrylic
my palette(colours I use) is completely different if I am painting outdoors like this... interesting
