Beach Paintings

Beach Going at a Certain Age/ oil on canvas board/ 7 x 5/

I loved this lady's style. Covered to protect herself and prepared to enjoy relaxing on the beach.
Art Note: I painted this over a pink primed canvas board and had the hardest time getting the pink to "settle down" and not "talk over"  the painting. usually, I like the pink undertones with the bright blue water. Perhaps, I needed to paint the underpainting with less intensity.

Cool Exercise/ oil on canvas board/ 6 x 12/

This one was painted on the white canvas board prepped with a small amount of gamsol. The "pink" visible here is a tiny amount of permanent rose mixed into the blues on a later layer of paint.
