This was painted the same day as the foggy one below, but after the fog lifted. I had done most of the painting when the lady and little boy came along. I just had to put them into the painting. This is 3 1/2 x 4 in my journal.
WONDERFUL, JOAN -- I LOVE YOUR BEACH SCENES! I cannot believe that you will be in Italy so long -- how glorious and fantastic! I just KNOW your journals will be filled with such joyous, outstanding paintings. (and how I wish I were joining you!)
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.

Another beautiful beach painting, adding the figures gives it an interesting element. Makes the eye look to the beach.
Exquisite details in such a small format, Joan. I love the variegation in the foliage too!
