"Sailor's Delight" 16x20 oil on panel

"Red sky at night, sailor's delight".  An amazing sunset on Lake Champlain.  I'm trying to decide if this one is finished.  Seems you can work forever on a sky.  This photo shifts very gray and flat.  In person there is much more vibrancy.  Hmmm -- I guess I'll decide tomorrow.  Sleep on it.

"Waiting" 12x12 oil on panel

Revisiting an image I painted once before. This one is larger (12x12) but it still worked. We pass the moorings at Point Bay Marina when we sail. But this was a particularly lovely evening. Not sure I'm finished with this. Maybe a few more tweaks, but I wanted to get a post up today. It feels like summer is coming to a close. Lovely Fall-ish weather, but I'm not ready to say good bye to summer.

"Moored in the Marina" 8x8 oil on panel

Point Bay Marina where we dock our boat is in a lovely little harbor with the Green Mountains off in the distance. I snapped the photo as we were coming home one evening. My first attempt at painting sailboats.

"Father's Day Sunset" 18x18 oil on canvas

I gave this one another day. It needed more paint and there were some colors I didn't like. Given that it is 18x18 I think two days are OK. Fun to kind of go color-crazy. But, in truth, the photo seems awfully dark. So hard to photograph paintings.

"Yellow Kayak on Rocky Shore" 6x6 oil on panel

A fun little painting today (no people), so I couldn't wait to post it. Although, the photo dulls it down a lot and I may need to re-shoot it. I took the picture when we were sailing one day.
