I painted this as a demonstration during my Bahamas workshop and as usual started with the sky--and could hear the gasps behind me as red and yellow pigments hit the paper...aren't clouds white?

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".

Votre harmonie de couleurs me ravit et l'ensemble de cette peinture est très plaisante... Belle aquarelle, bravo !
Bisous et bon weekend.
Your Bahamas paintings are gorgeous! Love the skies, water and ground (on this one) that mimics that beautiful sky.
I can imagine gasps as near shrieks! At dusk there's also green. Most people don't believe me until I point it out to them and then they are amazed.
I have always admired your color especially the reds and yellows in this sky.
