Viennese Waltz

Here's a pic I took at a Theatre Restaurant whilst on vacation in Vienna last year.Thought it might be a good image to play with.
Have fun.

Re: Viennese Waltz

Really like the capture Grant. I'm sort of back on my oil painting binge (other forums too) so thought I would try an oil for this one.

Re: Viennese Waltz

Very nice Jordan.

I try not to get trapped in my binges, but that can happy (like my plastic wrap binge; lol). I also recycle old binges from time to time to pass the time.

Dan - I love yours, too - not to dismiss everybody else's fine efforts. Kudos all 'round.

I used DA Painter and PS.
