Oil Painting Figure Girl on the Beach

"Sea Breeze No. 2" 16 x 20 gallery wrap canvas

This painting is a little different for me. Beside the size, a whopping 16 x 20 inches! Being all wild and crazy, I did the background with the knife in more of an abstract way. I'm working on another of this size. Hope to post tomorrow.

Summer is just around the corner. I can feel it! Today was a balmy 70. I will just paint the beach until I can go to the beach!

I so enjoyed painting this. I loved working on the hair, love how the reflections came out and really like the way the dark side fades out into the background. I really want to do a larger version with the water and sky in the background.

The first of this painting was a 6 x 6. This is a 12 x 12. I like it so much better.

Everyone that knows me will say this is a painting of my Jesse. My youngest who is 12 now, but this is what he looked like when he was just a wee ginger snapper! Yes, his hair is still as pretty as a penny.

I can't believe it's October! I'm still stuck at the beach. How sweet is this little boy searching the shallows for Mr.Crab himself! I hope he finds him. :)

Playing In The Sand

 This sketch was a bit of a challenge for me. I don't even want to talk about it! But I will. Everything was fine until I decided instead of her pout, like the reference photo, I want her to have a smile. Ruined the whole thing. A friend put in nicely "The joker's daughter" (Soon to be a major motion picture.) a major wipe out. I started to cry, WHAAA, threw some brushes, the studio got a bit messy...then I fixed it! A pout it is.

Something about the way the birds are perched all in a row attracted me. I love the way they do that. They look as if they are really posing for your camera. You think?
