Still Hokianga Morning
This painting was made from a photo of the Hokianga harbour in the far north of New Zealand, taken outside my parent's holiday home. I gave this to them as an xmas present.
The lower layers are painted thickly with a palette knife, the upper layers painted with thin glazes.
I made the frame from scratch with a wood router and pine timber, then applied oil stain and varnish to finish.

This is the reference photo - the boat and shadows were blurred out using photoshop as I didn't want these in the composition.
