The above drawing is something quick I put together at the beach last week while Tropical Storm Fay was pounding us. I took a few pics of this setup as well with the intention of doing a watercolor. I'm not usually into beach scenes but we'll see.
Also- I have been working on the oil a little in between all of our travels. I am going to make a point to put in some time on it this week. My biggest frustration with oils is that they take for ever and it just feels crippling! Everything- mixing the paint, setup, cleanup, drying time- it all takes WAY longer than watercolors. As someone who rushes through life- this drives me up the wall :-) , but I am going to push through. An oil painting just never looks like anything until the very end when it all comes together!
Good luck with the oils Mel! When I read the part about rushing through life - I had to chuckle :) I love the picture you did of the seashells...it is beatuiful and has so much detail!!! You are amazing woman!
