Day three hundred and fourteen: I came up with the idea for this simple study early this morning, when I was rowing on the Schuylkill River. It was very misty, and the water was very dark. Sometimes when I looked toward the shore, all I could see were subtle shades of gray upon gray upon gray. One thing about getting up early and rowing, is that it makes me quite tired by the end of the day. So I didn’t take too much time creating a realistic view, but rather abstracted it a bit, just to see if I could simulate the visual effect.
why?
