Dogs make everything better!  Even the beach!  I will donate 15% of the proceeds from this painting towards our local dog shelter.

Autumn in the Marina

I love the shadows and warm colors of Fall.  It's definitely fall here.  The wind is blowing and the weather is turning.  I chose this painting as my entry into the Autumn challenge for Daily Paintworks.

Walking Santa Cruz Beach

6x8 acrylic on gessobord

We spent a year sailing along the California coast and Mexico.  One of our very favorite stops was Santa Cruz, California.  The beach was covered in warm sand.  The ocean was teaming with sea life and the fun was non-stop.

Waikiki Boogie Boarders

$50

Waikiki Beach is always full of people enjoying the ocean. It was so fun to watch these girls playing with their boards.  It reminded me of my childhood.  My brother and I would spend endless hours in the waves at a variety of beaches around Hawaii.

Waikiki Beach Girls

$50

While hanging out on Waikiki Beach I had a great time people watching.  These three little girls were so adorable.  They were having the time of their lives playing in the ocean.  At this particular time they were making plans to jump the next wave that came in.

Last One to the Beach is a Rotten Egg

6x6 acrylic on gessobord
$50

Our girls were always so excited to get to the warm sand and start playing at Kailua Beach.  Of coarse, I'm the rotten egg here, but it was well worth it being able to capture our daughters' excitement!
