Come Sit With Me, 6x6 Inch Original Oil

SOLD
There's a spot in a little town called Bristol, RI, where you can sit and watch the sunset on a wrought iron and wooden bench.  In winter, at a certain time of day, the sky is yellowish, the water is ice blue and the snow is lavender.  The fishing boats wait in the harbor off to the right for the tides and fish.  It's beautiful in it's loneliness.   I just wanted to share that place with you.

  1. Very nicely done! The simpllcity of the composition makes the lonely bench all the more lonely. It tells the story so well!

  8. Don't you just love "the moment, and the place" when that happens. I know a few such places. And you captured it's essence. Thank you for luring me back Kelley to my own 'little tranquil treasures'. And your colors, you have to have experienced the moment. Another person who hadn't seen that combination of colors would never lay them down that way. Good on you Kelley!
