I love moonrises,especially over water. Its a beautiful site seeing the moon come up over the water with the reflections of colours. This one grab my eye straight away and i had only limited time to get a small sketch done and grab some photos. I worked from the sketch in the studio to complete this bigger painting. I was very happy with the result. This was painted in oils on masonite. This would lift any room it was hung in with its vibrant colours and mood.
