Guana Morning
Guana Morning | 12″ x 12″ | The Worley Faver Gallery, St Augustine When you arrive at a great spot to paint, sometimes deciding what to paint can be a challenge.

Dutton Bright
Dutton Bright | 12” x 12” | In Studio So last week I posted some plein air sketches painted on location at Dutton Island. It was a stunning spot and this time of year it’s a dark autumnal palette. I thought the paintings were maybe a little dark when I got them into the studio but they had something I liked, a moody feeling about them. Florida can be so over saturated with light sometimes that this time of year
