Amity Hall Boat Launch
9 x 12 inches
oil on canvas board
We had a windy, cool but beautiful day painting at the Amity Hall boat launch this past Thursday. It was a little chilly but I didn't mind in the least with all the heat we've had this summer. We saw a bald eagle flying above and two grey blue herons soaring over the waters. The light changed every minute or so since the clouds were large, puffy and moving fast. I made a quick thumbnail sketch when the sun was hitting the trees and tried to remember the colors that drew me to this scene. I have a few touch-ups to make but, for the most part, I'm calling this scene finished.

And I'm calling this painting beautiful--especially your sky and the area of sunlit foliage
Lyn, you captured the essence of the day. This is a terrific painting, and makes me feel like I am right back there along the water enjoying the day!
(I have not looked at my painting since I brought it home, may have to take it out of my pochade box tomorrow and decide if I am finished!)
Great painting, Lyn. It sure reflects the day.
Wonderful painting Lynn!
Thanks all!
Oh, Lynn. The softness is so inviting. I really like it! A beautiful spot, beautifully rendered.
