18 men on the deck in order to drop the mainsail. A acrylic painting on canvas. I started this painting with a black gesso ground and is really joyed working from dark to light. Leaving the highlights until last was exciting the painting going to life in the last 10 minutes of work. I've really enjoyed the direct brushstrokes and drive us technique trying to capture the posture of the deckhands in the single attempt.
