Honfleur Refuge - #65 - Original Watercolor Painting

Here is a different view of the old port at Honfleur in Normandy, France.  This picturesque town is an artist's dream.  Honfleur is located at the mouth of the Seine River, on the south bank.  I greatly enjoyed visiting there, as well as painting several views of this beautiful harbor.

A Light Breeze - #64 - Original Watercolor Painting

Here's another painting of an old sailing ship - I really love these boats - trying to make headway on a calm day with only a light breeze. The sails in the painting were suggested by scraping the wet paint in the sky and water.

Above the Falls - #62 - Original Watercolor Painting


Covered bridges attract me - they speak of older days, when a single lane, narrow bridge was not problem, and good workmanship was taken for granted.  This is a composite of several covered bridges that I've seen and photographed.
