"Redway Beach" by Jim McVicker

Last weekend Terry and I went down to Redway to paint along the river with Judy Evenson and Alicia Tredway. It was a great spot and SUNNY! I painted a couple of small oil sketches in the late afternoon light. This was a group of people sunning, swimming and enjoying their time together next to the river. I was very struck by the figures and the colors of all the objects. I couldn't resist painting what I saw.

  2. I agree with Steve, it's a great painting and there's such a joyful party mood to it.
    Well done Maestro!
