Luminous Sky Over Horizon

I really enjoyed watching beautiful sky during a week long Caribbean cruise.  One can be fascinated for hours just looking at the sky and ocean.  Pure bliss.

Paint Essex Plein Air Painting - Summer Afternoon in Essex

For the second painting of Paint Essex event, I setup behind Woodman's for a nice view of the town.

There were some thunderstorms in the area, making some dynamic cloudscapes.  Really enjoyed painting this piece.

Paint Essex Plain Air Painting - One Fine Summer Day

 

"One Fine Summer Day"

14 x 14 in

oil on canvas

Last weekend was the annual Paint Essex event.
Many artists participated once again to paint on a beautiful summer day.

 

After drawing a rough sketch, I immediately painted the sky and the water.  The tide changes quickly, so it's very important to put in the water's edge the way I like it.

Almost done laying in the greens.

After 2 hours, the tide completely filled the waterway and the appealing dark shadows were gone.  I'm glad that that part was already painted.

Almost done!
