Oil Painting - "End of Season"

6" x 8" Oil on canvas.   Available here.

This is a little plein air painting that I am happy with.  I think it came together quite well.  I painted it just a few weeks ago on a sunny fall afternoon.  These leaves are all gone now and the snow is well down the mountain.  The little sailboat in the distance happens to belong to a friend of mine who was out sailing that day.  

Right now I am on a trip to Scottsdale, Arizona to take a portraiture class at Scottsdale Artists School.  I am really looking forward to it.  It starts this Monday!  I will let you know how it goes! 

Oil Painting - "Front Row View"

6" x 12" Oil on canvas.  Available here.

We are having beautiful fall weather right now and I have been doing some plein air paintings whenever possible.  I have also been working on larger paintings in my studio.  This painting is a plein air piece that I did in August of this year.  The coastline of our small town is called  "Waterfront Park" and it is set up for campers to come and park here along the water's edge.  A coastal trail runs along in front of these campers for people to walk or ride bikes.  The view is phenomenal with mountains and glaciers right across the way.  Boats come and go and wildlife is frequently scene swimming by.  

Oil Painting - "Vacation View"

8" x 10"  Oil on canvas.  Available here.

This oil painting was painted in plein air during the later part of September.  Campers from all over the United States come to camp along the water front in the sea port town of Seward, Alaska, where I live.  Mt. Alice is the majestic mountain in the background and the body of water is called Resurrection Bay.   By late September most of the campers have headed home.  It was a beautiful fall afternoon when I painted this.  

RVs at Water's Edge

5"x10" Oil on primed wood panel.   This is a glimpse of RV camping along Waterfront Park in Seward, Alaska with Lowell Canyon in the back ground.  Not bad views for these brave souls.   All along our downtown the water's edge is reserved for RV campers.  We have a bike path there as well.
