Daily Painting 1206 Kelly Ann Fishing Boat

I took some photos of this boat the last time I went painting, they were coming into the inlet. I painted it last night at the Art Bank where I have a studio down town Ft. Pierce. I brought it home and showed it to my husband, he recognized the boat, its the Kelly Ann. He crewed on it years ago shark fishing. So he wanted the painting and I gave it to him. Its 8 x 10 inches, oil. I included a detail so you can see the textures and details. Not for Sale.

Daily Painting 1194 SOLD Sexton Barn work in progress

SOLD This is a plein air I did at Sexton's ranch in Vero Beach. Its a nice ranch with interesting cattle, I walked around a whole bunch to see as much as I could and decide where to paint. So I was tired when I finally started, I am not happy with the saw grass and other foliage. The plan is when it dries to put some transparent oil glazes on, this should make the painting warmer and bring out the colors I want in the grasses.
