Rainy Days

It's been pretty cloudy and rainy here in Bermuda but it's meant that I've had more motivation to spend my time painting rather than on the beach! Here you can see the finished version of the painting I blogged about the other day:

"Jobson's Cove" acrylic on paper, 16x23

I visited the botanical gardens today and the Masterworks Museum of Bermuda art which is well worth a visit if you are on the Island. It stopped raining long enough to do a little sketching in the gardens, the flowers were absolutely amazing and make me think I should revisit my floral series sometime in the near future. Today I have also been working on a series of three paintings inspired by some photographs I took a couple of days ago along the very northern tip of coastline just as the light was changing. The colours of the ocean changed so dramatically as the clouds moved over to block out the sun. I'll post the some pictures of the paintings in the next few days once I've finished them but for now here are a couple of the photos I took.
