on the intracoastal - 14x11"

I found a good spot along the canal right downtown near the bridge to the Sea Islands and painted this today. I had intended on finishing a different painting that I started on Monday but promptly ruined it......sometimes it just doesn't work out to do a study over the course of two days.

tanning - 8" square

I must have been wrong about uploading yesterday since today blogspot uploaded like it usually does. I confess that I am not terribly interested in all of the ins and outs of my computer. It is finally sunny but so windy that working outside was not even a remote possibility. The next couple of days promise to be better.

another beautiful day

I worked outside again today and nearly finished the very complicated garden picture I started yesterday. The light on the bay is wonderful at nearly seven and I might move from inside work to something on the porch for an hour or so. I will add another picture from the past (one that I have done recently and have photographed). The spot is Sakonnet Point, a very wonderful house on the south coast in a small R.I. town named Little Compton which is quite near where I live. There is a small lobster fleet that calls the place home.
