Bainbridge Island vinyards, plein air, landscape, oil

I had a great day spending time with my son Maury . We started out plein air painting at the Bainbridge Island Winery. Then went over to the Art Institute of Seattle. Maury took a placement test and I sat at a street cafe eating shrimp and drinking Coronas with lime. 10x6, oil on masonite panel, $ 100.00 Sold
The artist in action.

This is a sketch of Maury napping on the ferry.






Heres the Art Intitute of Seattle where Maury will hopefully be attending college in the fall.

Hi Robin,

Sounds like you and Maury had a great time in Seattle.

You captured a very convincing sense of radiant sunshine and warmth in your painting. I like the composition and the drawing is solid (...those luscious 'spring' greens are dazzling!)
