The last day in Fort Bragg our painting group headed down to the harbor. A few artists wanted to paint boats and others wanted to head out to the harbor inlet but I decided to find a spot shielded from the wind by a bridge piling. I took a look around and saw a cypress grove standing majestically on a bluff over the harbor. The sun was still hiding behind the clouds and the scene was just beautiful. Once again I chose to use the palette knife. The colors were very subtle but vibrant all in one. Being in Fort Bragg made for, "A Painting Day".
