Michaels View

An older painting of the Channel Islands Harbor

Channel Islands Harbor

This is representative of  an older painting that was plein air painted some time ago . It makes me want to paint in that more abstract, loose, and thick painting style again. It belongs to a friend who lives in the area.

Waters Edge

A lovely day at the lake and a painting or two to show for it. This is at Hyatt Lake’s day use  swimming area where I painted but did not get to swim. I was pleased with this one because the analogous color scheme works without being boring.
