Surf's Up

I really enjoyed painting this.  The ocean challenged me but I found that once I loosened up, it came out the way I had hoped.  I've been really busy working on commission paintings, so it was nice to paint one of my choosing.  Enjoy!

Girl vs Ocean

8x6

It's been quite some time since I've painted children.  It was wonderful working on this one and mentally reliving a wonderful time spent on the Oregon Coast.  A while back, I did another painting from a photo I had taken on this trip.   This is one of my best friend's daughter, who is now 20!  Time passes so quickly.  By the way, knowing Maggie (girl pictured here), she'd win!  She is one amazing young woman now!
