Morning at JayCee Park, Plein Air

I painted this at JayCee park Thursday, it was nice out, started out a bit chilly but it got perfect real fast. Its 8 x 10 inches oil on Masonite. I tweaked it a little bit at home, I had some hanging palm fronds in the palm tree that just looked weird and I added the sea gulls. They were there and were hoping for hand outs. The little blue heron was there as well, he was pretty tame.

The waterways of Florida are littered with abandoned boats, that have been destroyed by the hurricanes of the last few years. Unscrupulous owners, remove the boat registrations, walk away with their insurance money, and leave it to the counties to remove the damaged boats. In most cases, the counties do not have funds, so the boats sit in the waters.

Sailing, Hobie Cat Sail Boat Painting by Palette Knife Artist, Judy Mackey





"Sailing"
10" x  8", Oil on Board
Website:  JudyMackey.com
Email: CLICK HERE






I've had this commission for several months - before Christmas but my life has been so topsy-turvy lately that I'd let the painting slide.  It's an excuse. 


People have gone through worse tragedies and misfortunes and have yet had the tenacity to pick up a brush or palette knife and worked through it.



My heart is on it's way to recovery and my days, while still hectic can be tamed a bit.  I have good people, good friends who have supported me and kept me going.  I am so blessed with this - My Life.



At any rate, the commissioner was patient and allowed me to take all the time I needed...and so here is her painting...I've tentatively titled it "Sailing".  She is free to rename this, of course.








If you are interested in commissioning me to paint something special for you, please email me at judy@judymackey.com.  If you like my work, leave me a comment, share this blog with your friends and LIKE ME ON FACEBOOK - Thank you!!.

Daily Painting "Morning Sail" 6x8 Oil Landscape SOLD

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. 
--Mark Twain 






Purchase Here
SOLD

The thing about sailing, is that it looks like a lot more fun than it actually is.  I know, I know, that's just my opinion, so please don't get upset!  I enjoyed my days on the boat and I still love to spend an afternoon sailing.



Now, when I see a sail boat heading out on a beautiful sunny day, it seems like a little piece of paradise.
The real thing  almost never beats out imagination.  It's easy to forget the day the sail ripped or the day we sailed home in a raging storm with lightening strikes all around us.

Today, I will imagine....and paint about it.

Happy Birthday to my baby girl, Shelly!

30x40" Original Oil Painting "A Spinnaker Day" SOLD

For years, I have been painting small daily paintings, day after day, month after month.  I liked the instant gratification,  starting a new project every day, no build up of huge inventory to clog my closets and under my beds.

SOLD


Now, I find myself getting a little bored with the same routine and I'm trying to fit some larger pieces into my schedule.


This one was very interesting to do.  It is a palette knife painting and I had lots of fun working on it.  I have changed my technique with a palette knife and ended up with a painting with plenty of texture.


I enjoyed working on this piece and plan to attempt more large works on a regular basis.

"Just Sailing Along" by Karla Nolan, framed painting on glass




We have just returned from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, and please keep in mind, I am not used to seeing so much water around us!  We are happily landlocked in northern Colorado but being near the H2O is quite refreshing and enjoyed our time there.  I painted this painting on glass some time ago and thought I'd show it to you here, in honor of all the blues that we saw while on vacation!  Best seen in person, of course, as are most paintings on glass.

"Sunset Sail" by Karla Nolan, unframed miniature palette knife oil painting


Another sunset, this with a sailboat and a different ocean -- the Pacific!  I'll take any ocean or bay or river, as long as I can look up at the skies and see the ever changing clouds.  Throw in a boat, and, wow, what great painting material!

"Sailing at Sunset II", palette knife oil painting by Karla Nolan




Years ago my younger daughter and I visited Seattle, Washington -- so much water!  You must remember we live in northern Colorado and are hardly surrounded by the H2O!  I loved the sunsets we saw, the colors from the skies bouncing off the water -- and the sailboats -- well, that's just not that common a sight in my life (having said that, we do live near Horsetooth Reservoir, so I guess I could make more of a point to see sailboats, but I get seasick!)  So, this is an ode to the Northwest part of our country.

"Island Living" Original Oil Palette Knife Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

After a few weeks of not painting with oils or my palette knife, I decided I needed to see what was happening. I knew it had to be an image that I felt passionately about, so water was a must. And maybe the warmth this photo illuminated appealed to me too since we've had literally weeks of below zero weather this winter. There's a story this painting creates for me--could be an escape into warmth!

"Quality Time" Original Oil Palette Knife Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

Here is the fifth and final Christmas commission called "Quality Time". I had multiple images to choose from, and so was able to get some interesting light on the boat and also some beautiful clouds. Having options makes commissions even better!

Such an amazing way for two boys to enjoy spending time with their dad.

Original oil painting Beach Dunes by Karen Tarlton


SOLD
Beach Dunes
8x10
Oil

Spending a few hours a day watching the sailboats go by inspires me to paint scenes like this.
Right now we live a few miles from the beach so
it's possible to take a little jog 
along the boardwalk while looking out at water.
When I return to my studio to paint,
I remember colors much more vividly
than if I were still staring at the sea.
I close my eyes, listen to the ocean and paint!
