"Landing Patterns" 20×26" watercolor by Paul Jackson


We sat on the jetty at the end of the runway on Orcas Island to watch sunset. Every 15 minutes or so the antique bi-plane would land after a quick aerial tour. Each time he would approach the runway the seagull would take off and race the plane to a landing. It appeared to be a competition for dominance of the airspace. Turned out to be an awesome sunset and a fantastic memory.

Finally I found a couple of weeks to paint in my studio!
