Royal Morning


Pastel on UArt, 27x21


I have finished and signed this painting this afternoon. It has been longer in the works because of interruptions and distractions, but that's life.


I have tried to capture the purples and lavenders of morning on the Intercoastal Waterway looking southwest from the Little Jetties toward the Wonderwood Expressway Bridge which is two to three miles away. The passing clouds cast the foreground in shadow but bathe the near shore and the far bank in bright light.
