For Sunday Sketches and Summer of Color I did an acrylic (4.5" x 6.5") on cardstock. The Summer of Color theme is 'Wild n Reckless', a sherbet in green apple, blue raspberry and purple fruit punch. I'm pleased with the way this one turned out! I used the colours as a background and added the sailboat as a neutral focal point.

I have again stolen this to see if I can duplicate it in my own untalented way. I'll let you know if it turns out very well. It may be awhile. I have had a painting of a barn sitting on my desktop now for weeks, awaiting my hand at painting it. I think i'm trying to imprint the picture on my brain first so I can do a better job of drawing and painting. Yeah, that's it, that's my reasoning. 8-)
Nice piece, love the simple silhouette against the lovely colors, beautiful work!
you love boats don't you Mrs Zody? You're most welcome to try your hand at this one, looking forward to seeing your interpretation!
Pretty! Your painting makes me want to go sailing.
