Yesterday's News, Coastal Landscape, Florida Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting

Purchase Here

The waterways of Florida are littered with abandoned boats, that have been destroyed by the hurricanes of the last few years. Unscrupulous owners, remove the boat registrations, walk away with their insurance money, and leave it to the counties to remove the damaged boats. In most cases, the counties do not have funds, so the boats sit in the waters.




Thanks for viewing my post today!

Daily Painting "Morning Sail" 6x8 Oil Landscape SOLD

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. 
--Mark Twain 






Purchase Here
SOLD

The thing about sailing, is that it looks like a lot more fun than it actually is.  I know, I know, that's just my opinion, so please don't get upset!  I enjoyed my days on the boat and I still love to spend an afternoon sailing.



Now, when I see a sail boat heading out on a beautiful sunny day, it seems like a little piece of paradise.
The real thing  almost never beats out imagination.  It's easy to forget the day the sail ripped or the day we sailed home in a raging storm with lightening strikes all around us.

Today, I will imagine....and paint about it.

Happy Birthday to my baby girl, Shelly!

"Night Watch" by Kyle Wood

"Night Watch" - 18" x 24" Oil on Canvas

It has been mighty hot & dry all summer long here in Texas, so I have been painting water and coastal places that are cooler than it is in my hometown. I normally, do not paint many seascapes, but they are fun and they have provided a break for the norm. "Night Watch" is an imagery place along the coast that could be anywhere in the world. Inspiration for this painting came from some photos that I took in Galveston, Texas, along the seawall and my collection of lighthouse decor. I might add, that a limited palette of three colors (Yellow Ochre + Alizarin Crimson + Thalo Green) + Titanium White were used to mix the different values. This palette of colors is something that I learned from Dalhart Windberg. Enjoy!
