Description
Another Trompe l'oeil painting in my series of 'faux photographs'. Done with acrylics on an 11 X 14 inch piece of Frisk CS-10 Illustration Board. I used brushes, my retouching airbrush, a toothbrush and sponges for this one.
Not too much to comment on here. I saw this water tower while driving back from my Dad's in Florida in, oddly enough, Normal, Illinois. I'd heard of the city beacause the small Airline I work for used to fly there. Never thought seeing the name on anything so mundane as a water tower would make such an impression on me.
I painted it just as it looked, the guard-rail all blurry in the foreground. I embellished the sky a tad for drama and the lighting was a bit darker in the reference photo I took with my Polaroid while blowing through town.
The original was purchased by a friend.
Signed prints are available (ddecay@gmail.com)
