June Sailing

After plein air painting at Lake Quivira, sailboats have been on my mind.  I have been longing to capture the beauty of the silently sailing vessels as they skim the water - and today I have (right in the middle of a hectic day). These scenes recall the peace and relaxation of simply being one with nature, if only for a little while.  I tried a similar seascape in watercolors last night, but found it lacking.  So today, I picked up my oils - and got the look I was after. This is certainly my art therapy for the day!  Painting number 906 in 906 days.
