Marion at Cesar Chavez

I had fun with this painting. I was perched on a little hill and the water was choppy and reminded me of the Van Gogh I just looked at on my new 2010 calender. Then the little sailboat showed up just like the painting. I was doing the water when Marion my neighbor walked by doing her exercises. I have run into her at inspiration point also. But this time I quickly put her into the painting. She didn't see me. It is an 18 by 24 acrylic. Karen
