Please excuse my spelling mistakes.......*note to self, re read before pressing enter.......

I think the people are very successful and the cropped composition too. A wonderful record of your son's birthday. Having done a couple of jumps a very long time ago, I wonder how the reference photo was taken... did another sky diver take this? My photo was taken from a camera located on the wing of the plane but this is a much better aspect. Well done to both you and your son :)

Yes, another skydiver took the photo. My son and i both did a skydive together on this occasion, each having our own photographer. The photos are amazing. I would have liked a photo where the whole plane was in shot, but sadly there was none. May attempt painting it again, in Acrylic next time.

Great, such an unusual subject matter for this lovely bright watercolour

Continuing in my theme this term of putting people into a scene, this was my hardest challenge yet, and it certainly was just that! This painting is taken from a photograph of my son doing a tandem skydive for his 16th birthday last summer. Overall i'm happy with hoew the peole turned out. Most disappointing part for me was the sky.
