TERMINAL B, 9109, airport commuters © Carol Nelson Fine Art, Colorado, USA




This is the latest torture installment on Karin Jurick's blog, Different Strokes from Different Folks.blogspot.com. Painting this was like being waterboarded. I just wanted it to be over. The dramatic lighting from an overhead skylight and the extreme foreshortening of the figures made for 4 hours of hell. Check out the blog, and see how nearly everyone struggled with this one - although some are excellent.

As you can see from the reference photo, I took a few liberties with the colors. The people in the photo don't even look real to me. For purchase information on this 6x6 oil painting, please email me at carolnelsonfineart@comcast.net
