Path to the Beach Painting


Path to the Beach Acrylic Painting 24x30
Sold

Imagine yourself walking on the sand as you cut between the dunes to take a walk on the beach.  There is something about the sand between your toes and gently blowing  sea ats that evoke a warm feeling inside.  The blue ocean and gently rolling waves await you. Come roll your jeans up and dip your toes in the warm water.  The serene cloudless sky is a beautiful blue with a warm sunny horizon is only slightly visible but it draws you into the painting. The sand dunes have soft beige and blue gray tones with touches of warm colors here and there.  I have so many wonderful childhood memories of running and rolling down the sand dunes on Padre Island.  They are a marvelous sight to see, and are one of my favorite things to paint.

Painting Edges of three New Coastal Paintings

  I put my last three oil paintings in an assembly line to paint the sides.  I often take over the dining room table to perform this task.   The painting in the middle is based on our trip up to Watercolor Beach, FL with Chula, our dog.   I think I will call it "I Only Have Eyes for You". John was focused on Chula and not the beautiful woman who rode by on the sunlit sidewalk next to a stream.  I knew when I took this photo, that I would capture that moment on a canvas one day.  I miss our little Chula.  She loved to go on trips with us.   I also painted this glistening waterlily painting based on a Florida marsh at sunset.   The carnival of colors are delightful and memorizing.  I am a big fan of Monet and can see his influence in the way I paint my waterlily paintings.  I remember visiting an art museum and admiring one of his waterlily paintings.  I asked the curator why the edges still had white  canvas showing and remarked that it looked unfinished.  She said that Monet

Sunrises and Sunsets: My Next Chapter

Sunrises and sunsets are my favorite subjects to take photographs of and paint.  They signify a brand new start and a closing of a chapter.   I have started a new chapter in my life!  My husband and I have moved back to Texas after leaving over 20 years ago.  I enjoyed living in South Carolina for a several years but spent the last 20+ years in Florida.  It is great to be back in the Rio Grande Valley by family and were we were both raised.  I was also very fortunate to be able to continue my long career in higher education in Texas where I work for a university.    As I turn the chapters in my life, I will share my love for paintings, nature and living well on this blog!  Living well to me means being a good steward of God's gifts, for the good of others to glorify and praise God.  I have enjoyed sharing my paintings over the years and am excited about painting new places in Texas.   I have yet to unpack from our move, and will leave my art supplies in boxes until we find our perm
