Yellow Skies at Dusk on my evening walk on the beach Condado, Puerto Rico, on my birthday March 22, 2017,  inspired this painting of the point on Condado beach in the island of Puerto Rico where I live much of the time.

This painting was originally titled "Birthday Clouds at Dusk and as Art Card as La Punt at Dusk. I struggled with this painting for many many months to get the correct values in the water and rocks. I almost trashed it but decided to keep mixing and evaluating and looking and studying the values and colors to make the water and rocks believable. I learned a lot. Specifically to be patient, never give up. Keep looking.

This is the point that I drive and walk to in Condado often.  Some times fisherman can be seen throwing their nets here.  

Provenance:  The original 20 x 16 oil painting was purchased by, and entered into the collection of one of my dearest high school friend and avid patron and encourager. You know who you are. Thank You.
