This is 4 x 6 and was done the other day at the beach. It is always a challenge to paint the ocean and sky in plein air on a sunny day. The paint dries almost as fast as you put your brush on the paper.

I HAVE MOVED!
About Me
- Joan
- I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage. Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

You are really making me wish I was at the beach!
I couldn't agree more about how challenging it is to paint in the sunshine and heat! Love this, Joan ...! And the one below .. I really enjoy revisiting the Island thru your eyes -- thank you!
Mickey - It feels good to be back beaching it. Thanks.
Lin - Glad to take you to the beach!! Thanks so much.
This one is wonderful. The figure, the sea, the way the legs disappear under the water. I would be very daunted by this subject and you have done it so well.
Wendy - Thanks. I like trying to paint people at the beach. It gives me lots of practice on figures. lol
