Boats on the Bay

"Boats on the Bay"
10" x 8", oil on canvas panel.
Sold.

One of the great things about family reunions is the one on one time with my nieces and nephews. I painted this one with my two nieces nearby. I have just been informed by my niece Lindsay (age 8) that I actually do not paint with a palette knife, rather I paint with "a mini pie cutter". My niece Erin also provided a lot of advice while I was painting and she (and her dad) actually helped me name the painting. I have a good feeling that tomorrow the three of us will each be completing a painting. I can't wait! And I promise to post them all!
I love vacations ...

  1. Gorgeous! And so much fun to paint with interested family. I bet they learned a lot about seeing the world from watching and advising. And teaching always teaches the teacher.

  3. Another beauty! I really love all the vertical lines in this. Those few splashes of bright red add so much interest. You're really on a roll.

    Great news on all the work coming your way from the blog! (read that a few posts down on yet another fabulous painting.)
