9" x 12" oil on panel

Today found me back at the Cortez Fishing Village again... there's just so much good painting subject matter here! Plus, its always fun to chat with the motley crew of assorted fishermen who inevitably wander over to see what I'm up to. (Note* This painting gets it's provocative title from the name painted on the side of the aqua blue fishing boat.)

Painted this one by The Sandbar Restaurant on Anna Maria Island this morning. The sky kept threatening rain and sprinkling intermittently on my canvas, but I was not deterred! And neither was the wedding party setting up for the evening's ceremony just to my left ;)
