Back to Color themes.



I've painted shrimp boats here in Apalachicola for nearly twenty years.  This year, after my summer of color,  I've added the element of inventive color to this old subject.  The full moon was inspired by this month's super moon. 
 
It's been too cold to paint on location, so I'm painting in my room here at Sportsman's Lodge.  In some ways that's a handicap, but in other ways it forces me to invent compositions and colors that wouldn't be easy while under the influence of on-location realities. 

Happily I still have three weeks here, so I'll hope for some warmer weather to let me take my old friend, my French easel, out for a spin!
