Original Creation

No Title - Bill Alexander

Dirk1968 06 Oct 2023

After a long time, I found time today to finally paint something. I found this painting on the net under BA Originals, unfortunately without title. It is supposed to be from 1986. If you know the name, let me know.

I thought that of course it fits perfectly in my small series of Bill's island paintings and since I only had the photo I just got started. And I can say that it was really fun after such a long time.
I tried to capture the character of the original but also to bring in my own handwriting and adapted small things to my taste. For comparison, you have the original below.
I hope you like my work
As always, totally fresh from 30 minutes ago.

Canvas 24 x 30 cm ( 9,45 x 11,80 inch)2x white Gesso, liquid white ,Grinded 240/400, Time 3 Hours

You did a great job Dirk. I'll check the Alexander Art site for a title.

Nicely done!

Thank you , CosmoπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ

I'm a member and looked. It's not posted there as a lesson, so I expect this is a painting done as a commission. Give it a title now. Your version is just different enough to make it your own.

Thank you for this information, Tomi. I really appreciate it πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘πŸΌ

Glad you are back at painting. As Tomi said this might be an original by Bill which wasn't for teaching. You can give it any title. Good work.

Danke Tom , I think I'll leave it that wayπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΉGrüße aus dem Ruhrgebiet

This is a great painting. I like that style of mountains. Great job.

Thank you so much,CP. Bill has a different approachπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ

Cp23’s post brought me back here again bro and I’m glad it did! This is very very good, really beautiful and very well executed! πŸ‘πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ

Hey bro, wow. What a great comment. , thank you for that my friend . . It's actually one of my favorite paintings, the more I'm glad you found such great words .Unfortunately, I don't have time to paint at the moment because I have a lot to do with making my custom kitchen knives .πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Dirk do you have a website for your knives?

No website my Friend. . This goes from word of mouth propaganda If you want to send me your e-mail address. I'll send you pictures. I only build kitchen knives ... handles made of wood, Kirinite or epoxy with pine conesπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
