"Waterfront Park" Portland city oil painting by Robin Weiss

"Waterfront Park" 8x10 oil on panel by Robin Weiss   sold
This is my first painting done in 2013!  I'm really looking forward to all the painting adventures coming up this year!

My wife Ann and I went to Portland, Oregon for our anniversary and fell in love again with the Rose City! We had one day of rain and two days of glorious sun! I took lots of photos and am working through them while I am sick with a pretty tenacious upper respiratory thing going on....plus the weather here is back to rain/slush/cold..They say the days are getting longer...they also said December was the darkest month in our recorded history here in Seattle...somehow the weather folks can track the amount of radiation daily...Anyway...It will be nice to sit in the warm sun again!!  Here's wishing you all the best in 2013!

Being a long time resident of Portland, I instantly recognized this painting! It's awesome. I am so sad it's sold! Congratulations, and I'll be following your subsequent posts, and hoping for more City of Roses!
