"Beach to Bridge"

6"x8" Oil on Linen Panel, painted en plein air, alla prima on site

This was a quick little plein air painting I did while on the beach at Fort Moultrie on Sullivan's Island.  The view reaches across the beach stretching down toward the point of Sullivan's Island facing downtown. Way off in the distance one can see the new Ravenel Bridge.

This was such a quick little "sketch" that I feel it is a bit unfinished. . . if I do anything else to this, I will be sure to repost its image.

"Coastal Drama"

9"x12" Oil on Linen Panel

I started this and nearly finished it "en Plein Air" on location at Sullivan's Island station 30.  I snapped a bunch of reference photos and put final touches on it when I returned to the studio.
This particular day was hot and sticky and although it was sunny, you could see by the dramatic cloud formations off shore that there was a storm in our near future.
These kind of cloudy days are so fun to capture on canvas!

"Beach Brothers"

16"x20" Oil on Linen Canvas

This was a commission for a woman whose younger brunette looks a lot like my own son. . . I really enjoy painting these sweet "moments" in time: capturing little ones playing at the beach.  So fun!
