Acrylic on canvas board, 11 x 14 inches.  This painting is the first of three paintings done in the the Craftsy course by Peter John Reid entitled Reflections in Acrylic: Depicting light on water.  This is the second Craftsy course I’ve taken with Peter.  The other course was Painting Trees in Acrylic.  He is not only a great artist, but he’s an engaging and outstanding teacher.

So, the first painting led us through the process of creating a piece of art that shows reflections on water from the sky and land, including a small island.

Looking at these three paintings from right to left shows the progression.
