RED AND WHITE ROW BOAT BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

6 X 6 OIL ON PANEL

I painted this little boat scene from a reference photo that I took years ago somewhere in Maine, I believe. I doubt that pier on the right is still standing as it appeared to be near collapse way back then.

I was recently told that becoming an American citizen is a deeply emotional experience....this painting was purchased to give as a gift to a new citizen.....as these paintings take on a life of their own my task is to continue the dream with every painting .... contact gigihackford@yahoo.com

WALKING WITH THE SEA BREEZE

8 X 10 OIL ON CANVAS

I know it's about time I posted a painting.  Thought this figurative beach scene was finished yesterday,but after seeing in on my computer, I took it back to the easel for several changes.   Nothing like a refreshing stroll on the beach, but it so hot here in Gulf Shores, I don't want to leave the air conditioning.

LEMONS WITH AN ORIENTAL TWIST BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

6 X 6 OIL ON HARDBOARD PANEL

Lately, it seems doing a quick sketch  is a thing of the past.  I wanted to do this really loose and quick but spent  all day on this little oil painting with  lemons  I really like the little oriental  dish that I found at the flea marker and I am sure you will see it again in other paintings.  Although I photographed this in natural light it seems too washed out from the original.    I have a great camera but am wondering if I need a new digital card.

BOATS ST AUGUSTINE SKYLINE AT DUSK BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

5 X 7 OIL ON HARDBOARD PANEL

This painting is a departure for me a I rarely, if ever paint dusk or sunset scenes.  Wow, and it was not an easy task!!!   Better mix up your grays and carefully check your values for this type of painting   Oh, and don't forget to keep in mind your wind currents for the clouds!!

This is the view from the Edgewater Inn across the Lions Bridge in St Augustine. We stayed there after the show and it is great!!  All the rooms have a deck with rocking chairs on the back porch looking over the St. Augustine skyline.  I lived  in St. Augustine 28 years ago and boy has it grown/  Wonderful art galleries and food..  I had the best gyro sandwich ever at the Athena Restaurant downtown at Cathedral Place.
