Dictionary definition #2 for the word"reveille" is "The first assembly of the day." That is what I thought of when I looked at these sailboats lined up at the break of dawn. This is the 4th in a series of paintings that I've done depicting the marinas at St Petersburg, Fl just after, or during sunrise. I think there are more to come.

The sun breaks into the sky at the St. Petersburg Marina in Florida. I arrived before sunrise and waited for the morning light to color the sky. When it did I was ready with my camera and took several photos as reference for this painting.

"A Celebration"..Garage Mural

I just completed this mural here in colorful St Petersburg Florida. It's in a section called the "Old Northeast"...lots of quaint historic homes in a garden setting.

The challenge was to paint on the garage wall that was constructed with boards, so I used the horizontal edges of the boards to contribute to the lattice effect.
