James Gurney | I Paint an American Flag with a Glowing Effect @JamesGurney | Uploaded April 2019 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
James Gurney paints an American flag from a supermarket parking lot. Using gouache in plein air, he gradates the colors of the background sky colors and of the flag itself toward the light yellow of an imagined hotspot behind the flag, which gives it a a glowing light effect to this urban sketch.
