I took some inspiration from a photo again for this painting. Since the weather has finally improved, we sat outside around the fire pit the other night and enjoyed the beautiful night sky. I snapped a shot with the fire and the pool in the background which is still closed so it looks awful… so I swapped it for a pond, eliminated the fire and put some leaves on the trees since they’re just now starting to come out. My stars got a little blobby in a few places too. Eh, it’s all for practice.

I took a photo that evening of the New Hope – Lambertville Bridge with the sun going down behind it. I’ve always wanted to try and recreate it in a painting. Here is the result:
And the photo I copied:
