"October Colors"
Pastel on gatorboard, 14x11
Available, click here
Painting will be part of Color the Coast - Ponte Vedra Cultural Center
The paint-out goal for today was Mickler's Landing Beach Park. The center of the 40 acre property is a fresh water marsh. The view of the palm trees on the other side across the marsh grass and open water caught my attention. There were passing showers and a strong north-east wind, but I managed to put down the basics before the rain chased me in. Pastel doesn't do well when it gets wet.
The bright sun against the approaching storm created the feel of color and drama.
