1724 Water Hyacinths at Indian Hills Recreation Area South, Plein Air Alla Prima

I did this Thursday with the Plein Air Painters of the Treasure Coast. It was hard to get started painting, there are lots of nice views there and I was having a lot of fun visiting. We are planning on going there again next Thursday. The clouds were beautiful, it was perfect out, not too hot or cold.

The painting is 8 x 10 inches, oil on masonite.

1719 Sea Fan Hideout

I sure hope this works. My computer died so I am using my tablet to type on. This is the first time I have posted a picture on the blog with my tablet.

The tablet does not do as good a job as my camera does. The painting is somewhat darker. There are more colors in the two fishes that are on each side. They look a little bleached out on my screen.
The painting is 8 by 10 inches, oil on archival mat board.

1712 Poinciana Hideaway

This one was a demonstration painting for a painting club in Sebastian. My usual way of doing a demo is to paint one or more at home and then paint close to the same painting for the group. That way I can smoothly paint away without thinking too much. I end up with at least two paintings that are almost the same. So I took this one and added the boat and house to it.

Its 12 by 16 inches, oil on masonite.
