Raymar Art Competition Finalist!
Great news today! I found out (thanks to painting buddy Walter Porter) that my painting “Secluded Cove” has been selected by Don Demers as a Finalist in the Raymar Art Competition! You may recall that I painted it for my solo show last month in Pacific Grove, and even have a home-made video of the process. It was also featured in the local paper. Here’s what the judge wrote:
Here’s the painting. Wish me luck!
Secluded Cove - Oil on (RayMar!) Linen - 16×20″

Congrats!
Good luck with the contest.
If I may ask where is this view? I have painted up and down the coast and do not recall the location.

This painting and two others of yours, Ed, convinced me that you are a man to get to know! I LOVE this piece. It is sure to win a place near or at the top!
Good Luck!

Thanks everyone for your support!
Elio: the spot is between Big Sir and Carmel. i am trying to recall. I think it’s south of Rockie Point.

Just stumbled on your blog. I can see why this painting made it to the finals– it caught my eye immediately. Beautiful jewel-like blues and great comp. Good luck in the next round. Great blog, by the way. Looking forward to past and future posts.
