PUMPED to post this painting I completed a month or so ago. Its home will be a family friend’s nursery.🧡 I can’t tell you how much fun I had exploring how to paint the ocean water and waves, the sunset, clouds, and even the wet sand vs beach. I always feel a little tinge of sadness when my paintings leave my home. Simply because I put so much of myself into each painting and spend so much time looking at and thinking about each one. But the pride and joy take up so much more space in my mind because this started with a blank white canvas and now it’s filled with different colors, textures, and decisions all made and created by my hands. I really think everyone should give painting a try- there really is magic each process. These two pictures are from two very different times of the day. The one on the left was taken in the middle of the night with flash and the one on the right was taken during golden hour. 🧡
