A Day at Tihlman Island



A Visit to the Eastern Shore of Maryland

So I called up my old high school art teacher and I spent the day with he and his wife up at the Eastern Shore of Maryland, in the Tihlman Islands. We painted quickly and many times in the day. Once before dinner , once during sunset and at the docks under the moonlight.

Did I mention that we managed to find time to eat MD crabs and drink cold wine and beer?
The works are just exercises that I might go back and rework, but the vitality and the speed in with which we worked was great. More color, more mixing is my goal for the summer.

Here are the two of three pieces I did that day.



That lovely evening I discovered that my dear childhood Pam Ou died, she drove off the side of the road alone at midnight. Life is precious...let us savor it.
