Sailing Day daily painting by Everglade artist Jo-Ann Sanborn

Sailing Day, 2015, Jo-Ann Sanborn
acrylic on board, 5"x 7"

Sailing used to be one of my pastimes. I'm reminded of it's pleasure when I see a ship under sail on the horizon.  A sailing vessel will suddenly take on a life of its own and rush forward as the wind fills the white sheets, blowing them up against the blue sky.  A few nights ago sunset on the beach showed only two ships under sail.  For today's painting I added a few more, reminiscent of  the Connecticut shore and Long Island Sound.  But the clouds are Florida, and the sunset was spectacular!
