Fall plein air work

Catching up on posting. Have been busy with the art group, Blue Sea Artisans Gallery, and visitors. Now a quiet period through the holidays. Most of below are 8x10 with a few exceptions.    

Top is an old wooden hut on the grounds of the Kona Historical Society, a newer painting location for us.   



This image of Kahaluu Beach is a panoramic studio piece at 12x24 done from a photo another artist let me use. Dramatic clouds and foreground.
 

An 8x10 of the resort area at Kukio beach. 


A vie of Energy Lab beach on a wavy day. 


Old airport view of another wavy day with a few folks in the water.


Surfers at Pine Trees Beach north of town.


Beach 69 view north toward the rocks and dead trees. Seems more and more tree pieces are residing there every year. The two "dancing trees" against the rocks haven't changed in a while.  
.

Another studio piece at 11x14 of the Hale at Honokohau Beach park.


Strong lighting on the rocks and grass at Kaloko Ponds but I should have stook perpendicular to the sun and not had it behind me to get a better feeling of the light and shadows.
  

Misty day at Magic Sands on a day with huge waves crashing and all the rocks on the beach evident.
