Columbia River Boat House


Stupendously glorious weather compelled me out the door. A Facebook friend had posted a photo of a beautiful spot along the Columbia river, so I headed out that way. There are long stretches along Marine Drive with no place to pull over and park, but I finally found a spot overlooking this boat house, with the river and hills and Mt. Hood in the distance. I really tried to keep this simple, and focus on values, especially on the planes of the boat house. This was way too ambitious for a teeny little Thumbox panel. But it was such an enjoyable day, this little painting is kind of endearing to me anyway.
