Sunbathing

Sunbathing  9 x 12 oil on canvas

Did this little painting 9 x 12 oil on canvas.  Still debating the rocks vs the figures and if the rocks should be less defined.

Liliana's Living Room has been chosen as a finalist in Artist Magazine's 31st annual art competition.  It was a luck day when I painted this!  It will be going to Denver for the American Impressionist National Show this fall as well.

Plein Air Swans Island, ME

Fisherman's Coop Swans Island   9 x 12 oil on canvas

Over the White   9 x 12 oil on canvas

Here are a couple of plein airs from Swans Island.  The flower one had to be finished inside since it was so windy and cold and finally my hands gave in.  The other was the result of fits and starts and very difficult.  Lots of scraping out, changing my mind and then attacking with a palette knife.  All I can say is, I admire the many who do plein air all the time!
