Mission San Xavier oil painting by BECKY JOY

To buy this 6x6 oil click here.

This is an oil painting of the San Xavier Mission south of Tucson. The top was never completed on the one side, so it certainly makes this mission distinctive. This is in the late afternoon when the golden light shines on it. I used both the brush and the palette knife on the painting. The darker colors are thinner and the light has all the texture. I started painting this a few days ago, but screwed up on the drawing. So I waited for it to dry then went back into it and finished the piece. I think this painting would look great with a wide dark frame. It would really set off the golden color of the sunlight. I have posted this painting on EBay with a bid starting at $65.
