"On The Bay", 8" x 10", oil on linen covered panel
I captured this scene aboard Cape May’s bird watching
boat, the Osprey. The Captain and his
mate, a local naturalist, treated us and our fellow passengers to a happy morning of bird
watching amidst the bay grasses. Husband was in his glory!
Towering columns of cumulonimbus clouds over
land accurately predict the hot, humid September afternoon to come. Winds off the ocean feather the tops, competing to take
charge of the weather.
I used three blues in this painting: thalo, cobalt and Kings. The Kings blue is near the horizon line. Those of you familiar with Kings blue can appreciate how the camera and computer have a hard time communicating this color!
