Pines of Dutton Island Preserve
Oil on Masonite - 14x11
To purchase, contact me
This painting is a view of the salt marsh across the Intercoastal Waterway. I have shown this picture a couple of times under the title “Pines at Dutton Island Preserve.” This was one of my first paintings Done plein air with the First Coast Plein Air Painters. I have painted this scene a number of times since then, but sadly two of the picturesque trees on the left of the island have died and disappeared.
I am posting this painting here because some have expressed interest in this scene and in my work, and I wanted to bring it out again.
I have returned to this scene a number of times because of the combination of the lonely pines, the reflections in the water, and the sense of stillness and openness that characterize the salt marsh.
