This sunset was a surprise birthday present for one of my friends.
(This is a photoshop edit of my original picture. I strongly enhanced the brininess of the base.)


About the project
I chose this great sunset picture from Hydro-King for multiple reasons. Firstly, my friend is a huge sunset fan. Secondly, the masterpiece of a picture has a dark background and contains nearly no blue, which is perfect for a two-sheeted multicolored accrylight. And finally, as you probably guessed I am also a huge fan of sunset and in particular this picture. <3


Sunset Shimmer day
If everything works out as planned you will see one picture of this project at the upcoming Sunset Shimmer day in the open art article tomorrow on 22.9.2020.
