In April of 2000 I took a cruise to the Carribbean. I fell in love with it, and when I began painting wanted to do several paintings from the photos I took there. While moving I found the box of photo's from that trip, since Digital was new I still had to rely on 35mm at the time. Scanned this in to transfer to a canvas. The picture is of the harbor on St Thomas Island taken from the top of the boat.
While looking over it I saw some areas needed manipulated that just wouldn't work in a painting. Below is my result. I used a new looser technique than normal taking my plein air experience into account to let my freedom express.
The painting 8x10 Oil, St Tomas Island.
