Beach Find -daily painting, beach scene

8x8" oil on masonite. In the interest of loosening up my paintings, today I challenged myself to do a painting entirely with a palette knife and this is it.

This is a good exercise and you will see its effects in the next couple of paintings posted.

*** Also, the lovely and talented Laurie Pyszowski mentioned me on her "Favorite Things" blog today! Check it out here - how much do I love love love her header??!! Be sure to check out her paintings on silk too, just gorgeous! I especially love the lobsters!--- swoon.

thank you Laurie!!
