"The Rebel and Company", plein air, 9x12, oil on board
I painted this one out at Cortez Fishing Village last weekend for the Paint the Town Paint-out. I stood on a dock and was happy to have shelter over my head so that I didn't have to worry about the sun.
The day was chilly and windy, but that didn't stop the people from coming to this quaint little spot to enjoy an outdoor lunch from the famed Starfish and Company seafood restaurant.
I wrote a little bit about the Cortez Fishing Village and the Paint-Out in my last blog entry.
The Paint-out involved about 30 of the area's best plein air artists and I was happy to participate for the second year in a row.
My hubby was with me that day and he walked around taking pictures and chatting with people as I painted. Here are some of the great photos he took that day.
First up- me painting the boats depicted in my painting!
Smelling the fish!
Pelicans galore!
The history of Cortez:
As you can see, the old Cortez Fishing Village is a really special place and hopefully it will retain its old world charm for many more decades! (In spite of the tourists!)
