Beachy Keen - completed

Here you have the final painting. Even got a few

sailboats out there... It was a tedious matter to

paint the stripes on that umbrella, but also kind of

enjoyable because that is the focal point area.

Let me know what you think. This is Rehobeth

in Delaware, by the way.

It is 20" x 20".

$600.

Oil and alkyd.

Beach scene - getting started

I rearranged things in the original photograph I

took some years ago in order to come up with

this composition. It is square...20 x 20. A wrapped

canvas as well. You will find I change this composition

even more before finishing it. It has been fun to

tilt the umbrella stakes this way and that in order

to get the central focus on the group of chairs.

A lady and her jewelry!

Here she is, not quite completed,

but the essentials are in place.

I never saw her face that day but

from the back, she is certainly one

beautiful woman. She stood for just

a moment like this, and I caught the

shot. This is a 12 x 24 painting and

I named it "Dreaming and Desire".

I will post the final painting soon.

$800.

Double Vision!

Here I am in front of the place of which

I did this painting!
