Sailboat sparkle-sold


Oil on panel, 8" x 10"
I started this "en plein auto" but ended up revising it a lot in the studio.  Trying to catch that sparkle in the water is a challenge.
I'll be painting on Block Island next week and won't be posting anything while I'm there. Hope to come back with lots of new stuff!

I'm definately partial to the cool side of color so this one really does it for me! Have fun on Block Island.

I really like this painting, Kathy, I love how you actually make the water 'sparkle' like it does in the sunlight, without getting 'cutsey'!
