A great day in Holland.

What a gorgeous spring day today, ... and then to remember that it was
complete white yesterday, ...

Anyway I biked around a lot, and made three paintings, so here we go:

The first one is quite early made, a little haze is still visible.

"Langs de Waaldijk." Bemmel, Holland.
(Along the Waaldike.) Oil on panel.
254 x 30 cm.

The second one I was struck by the haze you see against the sunlight,
together with the grayish wall of the Waaldike in Nijmegen it gave a
gorgeous view of this ship called the "Fokkelina"

They even have a site:


"Fokkelina." Nijmegen, Holland.
(Fokkelina.) Oil on panel.
24 x 30

And the last one of today,  a lock. 
This one was quite a struggle each time when a
heavy lorry or bus passed the bridge where I painted on
the whole bridge jumped up and down for a few moments, ... 

 
"Sluis te Weurt." Nijmegen, Holland.
(Lock at Weurt.) Oil on panel.
24 x 30 cm.

Tomorrow model drawing, ... yahoo!!
