"Guana Marsh" and Jane Gray Gallery Show

SOLD 4 1/2" x 18" oil on panel (Click on the image to see it larger)
This August I spent a week at a friend's condo in South Ponte Vedra and was able to gather some potential subject matter with Guana Preserve being right nearby. This painting is looking south from the dam parking by Guana Lake. It is longer than some PADs. I will paint and post PADs more randomly and guess it is more of a painting that takes just a day rather than paintings painted every weekday so my blog is now titled "A Painting in a Day".
The above painting, "Field of Yellow", is a watercolor on paper 30" x 30" I recently completed for a show at the Jane Gray Gallery, located at 643 Edison Ave, right by BCBS Tower, just off Riverside Avenue. The opening is this Friday night, Sept. 25, from 6 - 9 pm, come by if you can. The show is titled "Jane(s): Contemporary Female Perspectives", with 12 female artists presenting in various media.
This is another new watercolor, "Field of Water", 26" x 35 1/2" that will be in the show. Both were beautifully matted and framed by Ryan of Gallery Framery. The watercolor "Springtime Hammock Study" is also included in the show, also newly framed.
