Two new oil paintings and three new watercolors. 

For a number of months now, a new short golf course has been under construction behind the gallery. One day, during the early stages, I noticed that the barriers put in place to keep silt out of the lake were covered with birds. It seemed as though they were watching the activity. Amused by the scene I called this painting "Construction Supervisors".

The other oil painting is based on a photo from my son-in-law's trail camera. I was hoping to capture the feeling of quiet as the buck stared into the misty woods. The title was obvious by his size. I named it "9 Point Buck".

I also painted three water colors recently. One sold the first day it was on display. It was from a local festival several years ago. At that time, I had painted the scene showing the crowd on the street. This time I raised my viewpoint to concentrate on the tower above the trees. I simply named this one "Fernandina Beach Courthouse Tower".

The next one was also based on an earlier oil painting. It shows some of the shrimp boats that were docked locally about twenty years ago. This one is titled "Shrimpers Docked".

The latest one, completed in the last week, is based on a photo from my daughter's latest trip to Croatia. She captured a scene of a sailboat resting in blue water near a cliff. It had such a serene look that I wanted to paint it as "Sailor's Paradise".
