Oil on canvas 9"x12" SOLD

We had a week of rain and heavy clouds and now we are having a fabulous week of clear skies and warm temperatures.  It has been wonderful.  On one of those rainy evenings around 8:00 PM I painted this scene.  Looking out of my studio/gallery located in the cove I can see this scene.  It was so wet that I took several photos and used them as reference too.

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.
