I found a new hidden treasure fine art gallery
in Sebastian just north of the Wabasso Beach Bridge ( Rt.510 ) that I wanted to share with you.

Six of my paintings will be on exhibit for all the world to see at the Coral Mermaid Gallery for the next three months.

CHANNELING MY INNER ANNE O'BRIEN GONZALEZ

FEATURED PAINTING

                                                 PASTEL SUNRISE

 



     With this landscape painting I was channeling my inner Anne O’Brian Gonzalez. I admire that she is a colorist and an expressionist. I have her book and three DVD’s that I watch and rewatch learning something new each time plus it is cool just to watch her paint.

     High key design is also on my bucket list and this time I managed to pull it off. Most of the time I start out with pastel intentions but end up with darks to punch up the value thereby loosing my high key intent.

     As I analyze what I just wrote I see an artist still coming into her own style or maybe just evolving her style over time.
