Rambla / Dry stream
Óleo a espátula sobre lienzo
73 x 54 cm
Una rambla puede parecer, en principio, un ambiente poco adecuado para buscar un tema atractivo para pintar. Sin embargo, como ya he puesto de manifiesto en este blog, me gustan especialmente los ambientes tirando a desérticos y muestro aquà una pintura de una rambla almeriense en la zona de Sierra Alhamilla. Captar la luz que incide sobre la cara erosionada del cerro ya es suficiente argumento para un buen trabajo; no se si lo he conseguido.

A dry stream would perhaps be considered an inadequate environment to find an attractive subject to paint. However, as I have shown along this blog, I like this kind of close-to-desertic environments and I show a painting of a dry watercourse in Sierra Alhamilla (AlmerÃa, SE Spain). Capturing the light and contrast between the frontal, eroded and shadow faces of the hill would be enough to obtain a good result; I don’t know whether I have been successiful.
