Here is the next "close up" in my latest series of oil paintings to share on nTopaz. This painting happened because I was working with a gallery in Cannes, in the south of France, and I wanted to make a beautiful oil painting from my trip to visit the gallery. I went with my family, and my mom, who has always been into boats, found a way to visit this beautiful Ferretti Yatch of which we were given a guided tour. Here is the complete painting:

I remember that this painting was completed in only 3 weeks, which for me is extremely fast.I think that I zoomed thought it so fast because the reflections were so surreal and fun to paint.
