"Night on the Salt Marsh" 9 X 12 Oil on Linen Panel

I did two nocturne paintings during the 30 Day Painting Competition in September.  This first one is an imaginary composition, since I only visited the marsh during the day.  I imagined that it would look similar to the moon shining over the ocean.




"Night on the Wellfleet Dunes"  9 X 12 Oil on Linen Panel

This second one is a memory painting.  My family and I climbed down the very tall dunes and walked the beach at night.  The moon was bright and lit up the ocean.  This is how I remember it.
