"Boats on the Portuguese Coast" (SOLD)


Not a lot going on in this painting, but I guess that's the point.  Just a lazy day on the Portuguese coast.  Fairly thick oil paint.  Used a palette knife to do a little etching.  Really enjoyed that (yeah, painters are easily amused!) and will be doing more in future paintings.

Many thanks to "Sunniest" for the inspiration!

"Into the Village" (SOLD)


Steps lead from a shadowed alley into the bright sunlight of Sorrento, Italy.
