This painting having intense color, texture, and simplicity, that was the original intention of this painting. I started by putting down a layer of color with texture. Then after that dries, I add other colors on top with a palette knife (the fun part) and take away some of the paint here and there with a rag to see what surprises of color may pop up (another fun part). I hope you enjoy this painting and new series coming up. Let me know if you are interested in this series, if it "feeds" your soul.
Here it is:

Could you just see this in a beach house somewhere? Or perhaps, in your bedroom to bring that memory of solitude?
Thank you,
Allison

Your painting does make it FEEL like it's a great day at the beach! Wonderful inviting hues. Makes me want to go to the beach - even though I'm in NE!
I love the feel of light and space. Beautiful.
