A Walk on the Beach

This panoramic pastel was painted on a Saturday afternoon in my backyard. Before you think we live on the beach, I painted it from a series of drawings and photo references I had from this great day in Eastham, MA a couple of summers ago.

A WALK ON THE BEACH
original pastel, 31x14"

I've had such a hankering to do some oil painting, but my pastel supplies were out and I figured I'd give it a go. Today's gorgeous and my kids are on vacation. Perhaps I'll work this up in oil today, again painting in my backyard. Could be a fun study in differences of the two mediums and more practice on my figures -- albeit teeny tiny ones.

Small works :: Single Cedar

Making green believable in the landscape is tricky. 

Creating a landscape a viewer can enter into and feel the space is a challenge. 

Evoking a mood from the atmosphere is often critical to the success of a painting. 

Taken together, these elements of painting are addressed with each painting and excite me to my toes. Off to the studio!
