Another back lit scene. I always find a beach scene like this very calming.

This painting was a challenge due to the dark values of the figures. Thanks to my daughter and granddaughter for posing for the reference photos.
My photo references for this piece are from a vacation to Alabama last summer. Thanks to my granddaughter for posing.
This painting is based on some photos taken during a recent Gulf vacation.
I always enjoy painting backlit beach scenes.
I grew up near the swift currents of the Missouri River, a body of water not known for swimming. As a result, I never learned to swim. However, the ocean has always fascinated me. This painting is based on some recent photos from a vacation trip to Alabama.
Painting summery scenes help me to survive the cold harsh winters.
I like the soft background contrasting with the sharp-edged figure in this painting.
Another painting in the "Ocean Series."
