One Red Oar, 11x14
Sittin' on the dock in the bay.....
....a few years ago and I came up with this. A friend thought I should post it so here it is. I'm not sure why it never made it to the blog.
I like the strong craggy uprights of the pilings with their various colorings and the walkway jutting out of the picture plane....that actually sucks my eye into the painting and to the boat. I think it was half filled with water and had been there more than a few nights.
Painted today with my friends Mick Davidson and Rob Weiss at the Bloedel Reserve. Had a great time. Once I decide which ones passed the grade I'll post them.
Italy is a GO. Too bad you aren't coming.... oh, maybe you are!

Love this, Darrell! The arms and cools are so in balance, then pop! that focal point of red. Feels very summery (freedom, light, color, water, yay!).
