This is one of a number of quick sketches painted of a young man fishing. In this sketch, he had tied up his pole, and was just sitting, looking. He moved quite a bit, frequently getting up to check lines, walk, etc. The weather was exquisite. It ws great fun to paint a figure in sunlight, though the pose was very short lived.

You have captured the light so well Joan. Great work!
Thank you! Quick sketches are great sometimes in that you don't get a chance to overwork them and lose the freshness. "Finish" is another story....
