Waiting to Sail


 6 x 6 oil on Gessobord panel - SOLD

I'm not real sure where I took the photo for this painting - could be the Mississippi Gulf Coast or the Alabama Gulf Coast at Fairhope.  We go to both areas frequently.  I really struggled on this one.   Editing a scene is very difficult for me which is why I prefer still lifes and figurative/portraiture.  I tend to want to paint everything I see which is not the ideal for painting pleasant scenes - there is always something that needs to be removed.   Mostly I avoid landscapes but realize I need to tackle those things that stymie me!?!
