I started this scene from the edge of San Pablo Parkway near the Mayo Clinic. A small tidal stream passes under the parkway and through this bay of salt marsh edged by pine trees and hardwood. The afternoon sun passed in and out of the broken clouds sending patches of light and shadow scurrying over the marsh.
This piece was done on 140 lb. Arches hot press to which I have added a coat of acrylic gesso and a coating of pumice gel. In an earlier blog, I documented my process, but between the beginning of this piece and finishing it today, we have moved my wife's parents from Panama City to Jacksonville and gotten them mostly situated in a new apartment. There is still much to be done for them, but hopefully I can get back to my studio.
