"Sitting in the Morning Sun" was painted this summer during our sailing trip in August. As you may remember, my husband and I spend a month on our sailboat cruising around the Broughtons and Desolation Sound. Many nights, we would drop anchor in quiet bays without any other boats in sight. These coves are usually small and protected with beautiful sights to paint. Many times, the views would be quite closed in, and in the end, I ended up focusing on small, intimate views of several points or islets which didn't include any part of the sky which was different form the landscapes I usually paint. Can you guess what we were listening to as I painted??? Love that song!!

Pinté "Sentados al Sol de la Mañana" este verano durante nuestro viaje en el velero en agosto. Como pueden recordar tal vez, mi esposo y yo pasamos un mes navegando por las Broughtons y Desolation Sound. Muchas noches tirábamos el ancla en bahías muy tranquilas en las que no había ningún otro velero. Éstas bahías son normalmente muy pequeñas y protegidas con vistas hermosas para pintar. Muchas veces estas vistas eran bastante cerradas y al final terminé enfocándome en vistas muy íntimas de islotes sin incluir nada de cielo. Pueden adivinar qué canción estaba escuchando mientras pintaba? Me encanta esa canción!
