"Dry Lake"

11 x 14 (Plein Air)

This is from the middle of Lake Jackson. Yes, the middle. This lake has drained regularly for years. (The indians use to call it Lake Okeheppkee which means something like "missing water".) It drained in 1999 and hasn't come back. Recently another sinkhole formed and what was left of the lake drained overnight. It is a beautiful place with birds and lots of open space.

"Tide Going Out"

24 x 30

"Standing Alone"

36 x 48

This is a large piece from a photo taken over in Amelia. I wanted to do an intentionally simple sky. Some gradation but no clouds. Mixed up a bunch of paint for the sky in three different mixes and did it quickly. I like this one. I think it has a nice feel and depth with just a minimal amount of subject. What do you think?

"River Bank"

10 x 8 (plein air)

I painted this at the White Springs Paintout in White Springs, Florida. Had a fun time. It was my first paintout that gave awards. Got there late and had to hustle around to find something to paint and to make it work. I would have to say I paniced. This one was the only one I finished and the only one worth showing to anyone. Didn't win anything but got some good comments from the other artists.
