View Along Turnagain Arm


Click image to enlarge


11"x 14" Oil on canvas, SOLD     This scene is on the way to Anchorage driving north on the Seward Highway past Portage.  Those of you who have been here will know this area.  The water way is called Turnagain Arm and this drive is one of the most scenic drives anywhere.   It takes a little over two hours for us to drive to Anchorage from Seward and when we make this drive I am always looking for painting ideas.  Rain or shine it is lovely.  This painting was finished last week.  I started it several weeks ago but put the final touches on it last week.

7"x 9" Oil on canvas hard board $100.    These roses have been really fun to paint.  In fact I feel like I could paint flowers in general for a very long time.  I counted the paintings I have done in the last few weeks and 14 of them are of flowers!
