In keeping with the sailboat theme from last week, this week I’m attaching two prints I created of sailboats. These prints differ from last weeks post in that the technique I used on these two was a subtle watercolor. The scene is a rainy (drizzle, not heavy rain) day on Bellingham Bay. Both prints capture a subtle rainbow in the background. The technique and coloring reflect the look I saw on that day. No bright colors without full sun, but a more subdued peaceful mood with the light rain.
Bellingham Bay serves the town of Bellingham in the state of Washington. Bellingham is located just south of the Canadian Border and north of Seattle. It’s just one of the many places in the Pacific Northwest of natural beauty.

Good Morning my Friend! They both are incredible. I do enjoy seeing the person in the first picture. It gave it a sense of realism. But the rainbows set of both so well.
Happy week to you!
Both prints for me captured the scene I saw last October when we were up in Bellingham on a drizzly day!! I appreciate your kind remarks!! have a great week!
Fun images Kirt. Abstract and ethereal to me!
Thank you very much Brad!! Have a great week!
Play time!
Kirt, I love these! The effects you added lend even more magic to the moment. Hugs on the wing!
Thank you very much Teagan!! After I finished them, I “sat” on them for a couple of weeks to see how I would feel about them at that point. They relayed the same look and feel I had when I saw this scene in person last October…have a great week and thanks for stopping by!!
I have to do that with things sometimes. It can be really helpful. Cheers.
These are both perfect reminders of the Pacific North West. I experienced many mornings like this when we had our boat. I loved visiting Bellingham which was less than an hour from us.
I’m sure you did. Heavy rain is one thing, but a light drizzle with mild temperatures creates a very peaceful & serene scene.
Very pretty and soft, Kirt. I love that area. It’s beautiful indeed… even in the rain.
Thank you very much. I tried to represent what I saw when we were up there in October…rain and all.
I like both of these, Kirt. I had to chuckle when you described the drizzle. That was the most common form of precipitation when I lived in Seattle.
So true!! Thanks Dan…..have a great week!
Lovely work, friend
Thank you very much Leyla!!
Captivating images, Kirt. Both the images are looking so beautiful and serene. The rainbow gives such a wonderful shade at the back.
I loved the actual scene when we came across it and tried to replicate the feeling it left with me. Peace and serenity…..Thanks for stopping by and for your feedback!
Yes absolutely true and a beautiful place. Always welcome dear Kirt.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
The images bring a peacefulness Kirt and the rainbow a gentle ray of hope. I love these two very much.
Thanks Sue….I tried to create the look I saw when we were up there. It left me with a sense of peace and joy….light rain…sailboats and a rainbow. I appreciate your feedback!!
Those are lovely! It’s an interesting juxtaposition between the sharply-defined shapes of the boats, water, and land, and the softness of the rainbow.
Thanks for your feedback, Diane….much appreciated! I did my best to recreate the scene as I had seen it. A subtle peaceful scene with the rainbow capping it off! Have a good rest of your week!!
Out within the horizon of net ever land. Very peaceful and imaginative.
Thank you!! I tried to capture the feel of the actual scene they are based on….peaceful and serene with that gentle drizzle!! Thanks for your feedback!!
yes … much more subtle than the previous style. I like both and I like how you are open to experimentation and different techniques!
Thank you very much for your feedback Denise….truly appreciate it!! Have a great weekend!
THE HAM is a beautiful place to take in, great place between Seattle and Canada
Thanks for your feedback…I was inspired the day we were up there…thus these prints!!
