"Marina Medley" is part of my Marina Scapes series, created from multiple plein air painting sessions at Washington Sailing Marina, and from memory.

I love to play with composition and color and see how shifts in both impact a painting and mood. This piece started out as something completely different that just wasn't working. When I changed it to a marina scene some of the previous colors popped through and add to the overall energy of the painting.

Lots of palette knife in this one.
