After Turner 'Slave Ship'

Comments

I think it's remarkable Tony that I see the image you intended then also a forehead, brow and a pair of eyes over specs looking back at me. It is a good painting though.

Yes I noticed the face also- scary. Thanks for the comment.

The sky is ablaze with that vivid orange Tony! Very Turneresque!

Thanks all, interesting history to the original<br />see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Slave_Ship<br />there's a lot in the original you don't see in my attempt

9 x 12 oil, think about finished, rather gruesome & thought provoking composition if you view the original
