Racing on the Bay
oil  8x10" and framed
sold

A painting now residing somewhere in
Japan, a gift to to a friend from an
art-loving couple who have been very
supportive to my wife and me over the
years. Loosly painted, it shows what
freshness can be obtained with
primarily a palette knife--the pigments
applied raw. and mixed on the canvas.
This technique is particularly suited to
painting the shimmers and folding of
water, though I seldom eschew my
painting knives altogether in any oil. I
love the richness of color and exciting
textures.
