"From the Boat" -- 9" x 12" Painting From Our Boat!

Since we have a boat on the lake we live near, and my husband wanted some "company" fishing, I decided to see what it would be like to paint a plein air painting while he fished! I have to say first off that it was fun and relaxing, but also quite a challenge. Of course, the boat kept floating into different directions, but I'd adjust and keep going.




I worked on a couple of small paintings and came home with a painting of the scene that was in front if me--but needing some adjustments, which I made in the studio.

I'd definitely like to get good at this--painting from the boat, and will try again.

"Sunset on the Sound" --24" x 30"

I painted this from my last trip that I took to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. One of my favorite places to visit, and paint.

8" x 8" oil Painting on the Beach

Another Plein Air painting that I did this morning on the beach. After painting this, I conquered my fears and went out onto the ocean in the kayak. Pretty awesome!
