1794 Morning at JayCee Park, Plein Air

I painted this at JayCee park Thursday, it was nice out, started out a bit chilly but it got perfect real fast. Its 8 x 10 inches oil on Masonite. I tweaked it a little bit at home, I had some hanging palm fronds in the palm tree that just looked weird and I added the sea gulls. They were there and were hoping for hand outs. The little blue heron was there as well, he was pretty tame.

I did this awhile back from some photos I took out at JayCee park here in Fort Pierce. I have a whole pile of paintings I need to get up here on the blog, not sure why I didn't post it! Its oil on masontite, 5 x 7 inches.

1791 Beautiful Day in the Savannas Oil Painting

Finally posting something recent for a change! This is from Thursday's paintout in the Savannas Recreational Area here in Ft. Pierce off Midway Road.

It was a disaster of an October, my husband ended up in the hospital with congestive heart failure, he is home now and seems to be doing well. I got a bug and had to go to the doctors, the stress sent my blood pressure up and the medications did not agree with me. First caused heart palpitations and next made me so dizzy I fell down a couple of times. All is well now with me, blood pressure is down to a low normal on no meds.
Then our toilet stops flushing! Septic tank filter was clogged. Great timing!
So I finally go painting, this is mostly from life but I had to tweak it some at home, I was a bit rusty! Its 8 x 10 inches, oil on Masonite, lots of textures, its almost all painting knife.
