Sitka Sailor's Delight - Impressionistic Landscape by Pam Holnback

Sitka Sailor's Delight
8" x 10"
Oil $125.00 + $10. s/h

"Red sky at night, sailor's delight.  Red sky in morning, sailor's take warning."  I thought that this old adage was somewhat appropriate for my third Sitka, Alaska color study, but I've changed it a bit to suit my painting.  My rendition of this adage is:  Red sky and water at night, painter's delight.  Red sky and water in morning, painter's exploring."  Ok, it sort of works.  I call it artistic license.
