Sand Lake, Oregon (Acrylic Painting)

As promised a new painting. This painting is the final result of the process that began with the watercolor sketch of Sandlake.


Sand Lake Estuary
Acrylic on Canvas, 20" x 30"
In the distance you can see Cape Lookout. Beneath the cape, lies the trees of the Sandlake Recreation area, while on the left you see some of the trees on Whalen Island.

The trees in the foreground are mostly dead, having been killed by a combination of salt water intrusion and some kind of creeping vine (which you can see all over the dead trunks).

The painting itself is much more vibrant has a greater value range than this photo indicates. I was disappointed that I was unable to get a good image of this art work but I've had that trouble often in the past.

At this time, this painting is available for offers. Contact me if you are interested.

A Good Fishing Spot - Watercolor Sketch

Going through my watercolor sketches, I was reminded of how much I liked this stretch of the Wilson River....


Oh yes, there IS a fisherman in the background...he blends with the rocks rather well. I have new items to post, too, including an interesting acrylic I think you'll like. In other words, there will be new things soon.
