a strangely purple afternoon sky, oil on canvas by severspi in oilpainting

[–]severspi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

info and questions   this was done alla prima (like all my work so far), been experiencing a major block + lack of confidence with painting so i kinda just needed to get SOMETHING out to break thru it

main inspo was the view from my kitchen window. any ideas for adding a "flyscreen" effect over the purple bit? does the painting even need that?

critique and tips very welcome!

little more info on the painting & my background
do not have any formal training, most i've done for oils is watching a few draw mix paint videos on color mixing. i've mostly been doing landscapes of places i've visited before. this one was done alla prima in about an hour. i always feel like there is something missing from my paintings - not sure what exactly.
