LEMONS WITH AN ORIENTAL TWIST

6 X 6 OIL ON HARDBOARD PANEL
Lately, it seems doing a quick sketch  is a thing of the past.  I wanted to do this really loose and quick but spent  all day on this little oil painting with  lemons  I really like the little oriental  dish that I found at the flea market and I am sure you will see it again in other paintings.  Although I photographed this in natural light it seems too washed out from the original.    I have a great camera but am wondering if I need a new digital card.

DUSK OVER ST. AUGUSTINE SKYLINE

5 X 7 OIL ON HARDBOARD PANEL  SOLD
This painting is a departure for me as I rarely, if ever paint dusk or sunset scenes.  Wow, and it was not an easy task!!!   Better mix up your grays and carefully check your values for this type of painting   Oh, and don't forget to keep in mind your wind currents for the clouds!!
This is the view from the Edgewater Inn across the Lions Bridge in St Augustine. We stayed there after the show and it is great!!  All the rooms have a deck with rocking chairs on the back porch looking over the St. Augustine skyline.  I lived  in St. Augustine 28 years ago and boy has it grown. Wonderful art, galleries and food..  I had the best gyro sandwich ever at the Athena Restaurant downtown at Cathedral Place.
