This is the Fairmont Turnberry Isle http://www.fairmont.com/turnberryisle/ in Aventura, Florida.
I took the original source photograph on a site inspection of the property prior to a small B2B Summit I planned. Then, while flying to Miami to do the program execution, I created this painting on the plane. It painted up so fast. When I arrived in Miami, I made some color copies on high-quality paper, then framed these up and gave them to my clients as welcome gifts. They were a HUGE success and the account director had me chasing around town making more for other various VIPs attending the event. We framed each one, and had them room delivered, and the people who received them really appreciated the painting as a souvenir from the program.

It was a joy to paint Winterthur http://www.winterthur.org/visiting/visiting.asp. I like buildings that are a complicated color. This one is ochre... sort of... with splashes of green and purple and brown.

This painting is a close up of The House of Seven Gables in Salem, Massachusetts. This painting really challenged me in terms of color. What color is this building, and how do I capture that on paper?
