Evening at the Mediterranean Cruise

Evening at the Mediterranean Cruise
Oil, 14 x 11, Plein Air Nocturne

 
I was attracted to the vibrant colors of this scene, so I chose my vantage point and set up my easel across the street, shortly before sunset. Then I waited for dark. As the sun went down and the sky became a beautiful deep indigo, the neon lights came to life! I was excited to paint, and the September evening provided pleasant temperatures and a nice breeze.
