Strolling Through The Water

I did a postcard sketch of this point at Guanaja Island last year. This is a studio painting of that same spot, but this time I wanted to add a figure. I thought the young woman added a nice feel to an already beautiful place.  It's easier to see ourselves there now. 9 x 12" Linen on panel

The Helpers

This painting
was inspired by a photograph in the 2016 Calendar of Jehovah's Witnesses. The women represent a few of the many volunteers in Dedza, Malawi who worked to build an Assembly Hall where Bible education will be available to the people in that area of the world. I love the explosion of color in their clothing and the beautiful smiles on their faces. 10 x 30" Oil on cotton stretched canvas.
