Seaside 2



Seaside 2 SOLD
6" x 6"
oil on panel

I painted this one loose and fast..sometimes i get too tight in my painting.  I did this from a photo as its a bit too rainy to paint outside. Also I am trying to see how it actually works to paint in such a my mini motorhome.  I think its okay for small work..though oil is a bit dodgy since i seem to get it everywhere!

Path to the Beach



Path to the Beach, SOLD
6" x 4"
oil on canvas

Love this composition with an invitation to the blue sea.  One of my favorites!..There were a two figures in the photograph which i almost painted in but edited out as it seemed cluttered on such a small canvas but i may attempt in a larger format to keep challenging myself.

I do love beach grasses, though quite a challenge to paint..painting "mass" as well as individual grasses..I realize i have been a bit neglectful of my blog lately and quite behind!..oh well life gets in the way sometimes
