Royal Society of Marine Artists success

After the water spout, Eastpoint
Great news everybody! After a nerve wracking last few hours waiting for the final selection results to be announced I found out that this painting 'After the water spout, Eastpoint' has been accepted to hang in the exhibition!
You may remember that this is a large studio painting (about 30" x 36" framed) based on a study from my May plein air trip to the Gulf coast in Florida.
The Royal Society of Marine Artists exhibition takes place at the Mall galleries from October 16th to 27th.
I am absolutely delighted, and feel encouraged to continue to develop plein air paintings in the studio on a larger scale.

    Well done Haidee. Lovely portrait of that Grantham industrial estate! Love that orange light on the road sign, yummily painted.

      Thanks Angela! As I don't like wine I think I'll have a glass of Brittany cider :-)
