Rhode Island Sunset

This small work was the first painting I completed after visiting New England last September.  The idea came to me as I was entering a seafood restaurant in Newport, Rhode Island one evening.  Across the street sat a very small cottage-like house, and the sun was setting behind it.  When I returned home, I tried to recapture that image with this canvas.

"Rhode Island Sunset."  Oil on canvas, 16 x 20 inches.  Completed October 2013.
