I had the Florida Keys on my mind yesterday and just had the urge to paint what was in my head. I used a pallet knife to paint this. I like the way it came out and I enjoyed working with the cool colors for a change.
This summer I had a chance to visit with my family in RI. We went to the beach several times. This is a painting of my brother and my niece. It was a beautiful day we had a lot of fun!
I had so much fun painting my moose that I thought I would paint this pelican. I think pelicans are pretty cool birds. The last time I went to the beach which was a few weeks ago, there were so many pelicans, they would fly very close to our balcony. Another thing I noticed is thery seemed to always be in three or fives.
This painting was done on location at Bond Park. The girl in the painting is one of my students. We painted outside for about three hours. It was such a beautiful day! The breeze was just right.
This is a pallet knife painting. It was done on a trail behind my studio. I really wanted to capture the light I saw. The light was really twinkling through the leaves, there was a nice breeze.
