Weekend study

Between sleeplessness, followed by long naps, and the usual weekend chores, I've had some time in the studio and have pretty much finished the puffin piece. Waiting for it to dry, in off days I dabble with little studies for other paintings.  This is another view of the red boat that I painted earlier this year. 

Finishing up the palette is a good excuse to do a study and practice never goes astray.  I'm working out ideas and thumbnail sketches for new paintings, as well still finishing up pieces that have been left to sit for awhile.
