Waiting For The Tide, the home stretch...

 Waiting For The Tide
10 x 13

I am so close to having this piece finished.  It will definitely be done today!  I just have to add a few more details to the boats and reflections to the people.  I can't wait to have this matted and framed.  Everything looks so much more awesome that way!

Waiting For The Tide, Work In Progress


It's slowly coming along.. I can't wait to add the dark shadows in the water!!  I just love how adding in the people really puts these giant boats into perspective.

Waiting For The Tide


I am working on this painting of some beached ships.. I just love the rusty colors on the ship in front.. It makes such a cool reflection on the wet beach.  Still a work in progress, but I plan on having it completed in a couple of days.  I'm still on my "ocean, shell, anything coastal" trend.  Although, with everything going on in the world right now.. I'm not so sure I want to be anywhere near the ocean.  It really is a tragedy, and so many are needing our prayers right now.

Seashells Finished

Shells
Watercolor
5 x 7

Alright!  I finished my seashell painting.  I am doing two more to go into a mat made for three.. So should be fun deciding what to do next!

Seashells


I am working on this seashell painting right now.. It certainly isn't the best, but it is fun.  I love anything to do with the ocean.  I have seashells all over my house, and have recently painted the soft blue green color in my girl's room, and bathrooms..  I just love that color of blue with cream, tans, light greens, and browns.  It's so airy.  Okay, I got a little off track there.  So I still have a little work to do on this small 5 x 7 painting, but should have it wrapped up in a few.  Then I will try another one!
