Past the Boardwalk, stormy beach scene


"Past the Boardwalk"

Went back and made some corrections to this older painting. The sand had too much texture and too many footprints, which was more realistic, but less pleasing to the eye.  I simplified it and brought the weeds growing down into the path.  I also worked on the clouds.

Day's End, sunset seascape on a rocky shore


"Day's End"

From a painting demonstration. The colors turned out better than I had hoped. (Teaching a lesson often leaves my work in  need of many corrections by the time I am finished helping everyone else.)

Sun Down, sunset seascape


"Sun Down"

Created this painting alla prima, or all in one session.  It was done from memory with a palette knife a few years ago.  This one has an abstract feel to it.  Wanted to capture the fleeting moments of the end of the day and the movement in the sky and water.  It really poured out of me. I love it when it flows like that.

ENJOY!

Inlet Park, plein air painting, Florida seascape


"Inlet Park"

Did this a few years ago with my plein air group out in Fort Pierce. It was far more challenging than I imagined to capture the windy day and the changing colors of sky and water.  I love the end result, however, and think I captured the effect I was after.

Green Pastures 2, Florida landscape with cattle


"Green Pastures 2"

This is from the Adams Ranch. It is a huge cattle ranch, with hundreds of acres, natural springs, tons of wildlife, and of course horses and cattle. I created it from the photos I took while I was out plein air painting (out on location).

Sun Up, palette knife sunrise landscape


"Sun Up"

I did this knife painting a few years ago. I was interested in the way the sun came from the other side of the bank and of course the reflections.  I like using a knife for unique color mixtures and textures.



Enjoy!
