Honfleur Marina

A view of the Honfleur Marina in the morning on the way to get coffee from an outside cafe. Unfortunately, I was not able to get a great photo of the painting. It has much more depth and complexity in person. My studio doesn't have much space and I have very basic lighting to work with, so sadly, this photo doesn't show the painting as it really is. Fortunately, it has been displayed in galleries where people were able to see it in person. Oil on 36"h x 48" stretched canvas. SOLD.

Honfleur Promenade

A view of the promenade in Honfleur, France. It is lined with shops, restaurants and cafes. Next time I visit, I plan to take my art supplies with my so I can paint the lively town scene while I sip my coffee. This painting was painted from a reference photo that I took while visiting in 2014. Oil on 24"h x 36"w stretched canvas. This painting was at the Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art in Ligonier, PA as part of the show I had with my mother, Jolene Joyner, called "Looking for the Light in Dark times." SOLD.

Morning in Honfleur


It was a sunny spring morning in Honfleur with a bit of haze in the hills. I was always inspired by the paintings of Eugene Boudin, so my mom, a friend, and I stayed in Deauville, and took day trips to Honfleur and Trouville from there. I was able to see the beaches and marinas that inspired both Boudin's and Monet's paintings. Honfleur is peaceful in the mornings while shopkeepers and artists set up their shops for the day. After circling the marina a couple of times to see the buildings and boats from all angles, my mom and I stopped for an espresso at a dock-side cafe, then got lost in the town's alleyways. Oil on 30"h x 40"w stretched canvas. SOLD.

Honfleur Marina


Boats linger in the Honfleur marina anticipating a full day of sailing. The sailors are probably sitting at one of the cafes drinking espresso. This painting is on a 28"h x 22"w x 1 1/2"d gallery wrapped canvas with finished raw umber-colored edges. It comes ready to hang.

This is one of seventeen paintings that I will have at the Affordable Art Fair in New York City! My work will be in the UGallery booth (booth 1.2) If you are in New York from March 25 - 29, please stop in to see the collection! SOLD.

Honfleur Rooftops


When you walk up the hill, away from the hustle and bustle of the harbor area in Honfleur, France, you see this view of rooftops and trees. I believe it is along the same street as the Eugene Boudin museum. Oil on 20"h x 24"w x 1 1/2" stretched canvas. SOLD.

Honfleur Boat Study II


This is a painting of what I consider the less chaotic side of Honfleur. There aren't quite as many sidewalk cafes and the boats are more uniform (at least they were on the weekend I visited.) The buildings are a little shorter, so you can see the surrounding hills behind them. Oil on 8"h x 6"w cotton Ray Mar board. SOLD.

Sidewalk Cafe in Honfleur


This is a view of some sidewalk cafes in Honfleur, France on a sunny spring morning. Tables are lined up along the street in front of the harbor. It is very relaxing to sit at one of the tables with a cup of coffee overlooking the boats. Well, unless you are like me and incessantly photograph the surroundings.
