36" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Seascape Painting

This funky old rusted out dinghy is pulled up to the rocky Maine shoreline.  I have painted this scene several times, and this painting is my favorite because of the palette knife work.  If you look closely, the rusty surface on the dinghy has texture, and the rocks in the shallow end of the water are thick and chunky. This painting is available for purchase.  Contact Kay for more info.  Thanks for looking at my blog!  KMW

This colorful dinghy was aching to be painted when John and I came across it in a small fishing village in Maine.  It had lots of character, and was tied up to the rocky shoreline.  This small piece is framed in a dark mahogany frame, and is ready to find a new home.  Contact Kay for more info.  Thanks, KMW

Inspired by a trip to the east coast, this dingy was tied up along the rocky shore at a small fishing village in Maine.  I liked the rustic look of the metal, sitting in the shallow water with reflections and rocks popping up.  This seascape painting is for sale, and is framed in a handsome dark moulding.  Contact Kay for purchasing info.  Thanks, KMW

The rusty old dingy is tied up to a rock on the shore.  The rocks were painted with a palette knife, so they are textural with the water washing up over them.  This painting is framed in a handsome dark mahogany moulding.  My inspiration for this painting was a dingy tied up in a small fishing village in Maine.  It caught my eye---and I had to paint it!  Thanks for looking at my blog.  Contact Kay for purchasing info.  KMW

A trip to Maine gave me the inspiration to paint this small dinghy that was tied up in a fishing village.  I liked the rust and color changes on the metal, the textures in the rocks, and the variations in the water as it rippled across the rocks.  This small painting is available, and looks great framed up.  Contact Kay for more information.  Thanks for looking at this blog.  Kay

An old dinghy tied up to a dock caught my eye when we were in a small fishing village in Maine.  I loved the old and weathered metal on the boat.  It was rusty and rough.  The water skimmed over the rocks leading up to the shore.  I used a palette knife to give the rocks and dinghy texture and depth.  This painting looks great framed up in a dark wood moulding.  Contact Kay for more information on this painting.  Thanks for looking...Kay

Inspired by a dinghy tied up in a small fishing village in Maine, I painted this small 12" x 12" panel with a palette knife and a flat brush.  The rocks at the shore have texture, as I used the knife to apply the thick oils.  Looking through my photographs from this trip to Maine, I would like to do a series of boat paintings...Thanks for looking at this blog and the art posted.  This painting is hanging at the studio.  Contact Kay for more information on this painting.  KMW

Contemporary Oil Painting

I was in the mood for boats...and a #12 Filbert.  So I got my paints out and started sketching with the paint.  Here is a pic when I was laying the shapes out.  I had a photograph from last year's trip to Maine that I used for reference.

And then I started pushing the paint around.  I did not use any medium, so the paint is very thick.  The best part is that I painted pretty fast...I was able to work this painting in one session.

I kept layering the paint on.  I don't know why, but after I finished this painting, I immediately started a commission....another boat painting!  I can't post my progress on that one because it is a gift for someone, and I will have to wait until it is finished and shipped to Chicago.  Thanks for looking at my blog and the art posted here.  Contact me if you are interested in this painting....kay@kwyne.com.  Have a good day.....Kay
