Cabin Cruiser

Painted at Balboa Harbor. At first, I was concerned that my painting lacked balance, but soon came to realize that the deep space to the right helped balance the close up cabin cruiser.

Sailboat
oil/panel
11" x 14"

In Sailboat a single figure stands on the dock before a sailboat in a very blue lake. It’s a painting that reflects the pleasurable activity I took in sailing in the New England of my youth.

The Night Wave

Intense colors freely applied are intended to
represent the movements of water at night. The painting also satisfied my need to express
myself with the thick paint of Expressionism. Framed in a thick black frame.
