Sailboats at the Dock

8 x 10 oil from Seattle at Lake Union at the Center for Wooden Boats.  A spot to rent a small sailboat or take a sailing lesson.  This was painted from photographs I took on location.  On my ETSY store

New Paintings at 2016 Holiday Art Tour

I hadn't posted for a while because I hadn't taken any pictures.  These paintings are at the Vashon Holiday Art Tour Stop #32 Pink House painters in Burton opposite the post office.  I took these paintings with indoor lighting so the colors are a bit off.  All these are framed. 

Sailboats at the dock 8x10 - one of several I painted from a scene from the Center for Wooden Boats at Lake Union in Seattle.

Car Show 4 x 6 I do like old cars - to look at, not to drive - I'm not great at a manual transmission.

Wooden Boats

From the Center for Wooden Boats in Seattle.  I think these are both small wooden sailboats, one with a mast, one the mast taken out, used for rentals and lessons at Lake Union.  I like the lines and shapes of boats - the curves are very subtle and fun to draw.

Sailing Lesson - Still at the Dock SOLD

A painting from photographs I took at the Center for Wooden Boats on Lake Union in Seattle where sailboats and rowboats are available for rent.  I like the sunlight on the sails and hull. I reduced the brightness of the whites in the background so that the foreground sailboat would stand out.
