Alaska sunset



Alaskan Sunset
6" x 6"  oil

We had a beautiful, clear day here in Anchorage, Alaska.
 I knew I wanted to try painting the sunset today, but it was pretty cold..... -5.
This sunset was happening at about 3:45. 
  
So I set up in my yard....close to the house where I could zip inside and 
warm up by my wood stove.  This was quick, but fun.  I like painting outside, maybe next time it will be warmer.

Thank you for looking!  :)

The Beach.....




Tonight, in Anchorage Alaska, it's snowing.  It's so peaceful and beautiful....
..but....
I have the beach on my mind......I'll switch gears soon enough. 
I'm still enjoying the warm sunshine, crashing waves and ocean breeze in my head.
I had to try painting it.

Thank you for looking!

Blimp




"Blimp"
6" x 8"  oil

Sitting on the beach in California, I saw this big blimp cruising up and down the beach.
I knew I had to paint this!  Somehow blimps still make me think of the 1930's.

It would be great if this one was aluminum....but, the colors are beautiful too.

I'm home in Anchorage, Alaska....but warm & sunny California is still on my mind.

Thank you for looking!

My painting "Pretty in Pink" was juried into Las Laguna Gallery's "Women in Art" show.  These pictures are from last week's opening.
The show runs from November 7th until November 28th in Laguna Beach, California.
It's a great show with so many amazing artists....I felt very privileged to be a part of the show!
