Beach Study

            I was lucky enough to visit the beach last weekend and took advantage of the opportunity to paint the ocean and sky from life. It was a windy day when I tried to paint an impression of sweeping clouds and choppy waves. Waves of course are hard to paint exactly from life but I find if I keep studying them, I can notice enough to convey at least an impression of them.

            Happy Weekend!

            There’s something so mesmerizing about the ebb and flow of waves. The sound of the waves, as they build and then gradually crash on the shore, can lull you into a relaxing stupor. As an additional treat, if you’re patient and wait until the sun is setting, the light can make them glow with all the colors of the rainbow. I just love painting waves!

Happy Weekend!
