Glistening Capt Charlies-6x8

More work from the Artist Residency stay on Bald Head Island. Lots of neat cape cod style houses, beach and marsh subject matter.







I especially like this one. kept the shadows on the road light but they still look like shadows. lots of neat "cape cod" underpainting glowing and peeking out in just the right amounts. I did one like this 9x12 too but didnt get a photo of it unfortunately.

Love these Mike! So vibrant. I gave you a plug on my latest blog post since I was showing the easel idea I got from you. I gave you the credit and put a link back to your blog. The pegboard easel is working great. I love it!
