Sunshine shoulders, beach plein air painting

6x6" oil on panel.  plein air.
 Squint,squint, squint.  my mantra with these.  really helps get the values right. 
go ahead - squint at this one - you'll see what I mean.

this painting will be with me, along with many more of my paintings in Wickford, RI this weekend for the
art festival
 Instead of in a tent, I'll be showing my paintings on the porch at The Wickford Collection - super cool shop you won't want to miss.

6x6" oil on panel. - kinda happy this is still around, its always been one of my favorites. The colors are just so summery

Daisy - beach scene,contemporary

20x20 oil - below is a close up -
bought a bunch of 20x20 canvases today and painted 3 already - pushing things into a more abstract zone, thinking about the negative space and the thick vs thin paint and the drippy stuff too.
Normally the subject would be the thick paint and the background or the negative space...the "ocean" around the subject would be the thinner paint. Today I thought "what if I flipped it ?"

more exploring of this.... enjoying a more contemporary bent and the bigger size

Me and My Shadow

6x6" oil on gessobord

Shore Birds - daily painting,beach scenes

6x6" oil on gessoboard
love this beach scene: ladies wading around in the water like a bunch of shore birds, barely getting wet. Every beach has them. :)
