RAINY DAY AT BAYPORT

This pastel painting was done at the end of the Bayport pier on a hazy, rainy day.  It was enjoyable to do because the many times I've been there before it would be very hot and sunny.

CAPTAIN JACK SHRIMP BOAT

After seeing Neil Walling's demo on painting a shrimp boat I thought I'd give it a try.  Here is "Captain Jack" a shrimp boat docked at the Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks in Florida.  I was grateful he stayed put long enough for me to finish the painting.
