Painting outdoors at the beach as part of my" Kootenay Life" painting project. Very happy to have had a sun shade as it was over +30. It was difficult a difficult exercise, still figuring out what to bring and what to paint. Will definitely try this again and took some great photos that day that will probably end up being part of the final paintings for exhibition.
"Rock Hopping"This is a little painting I did of some friends who stopped by this past summer. I loved the drama of the falls and how the kids were shining in the sun. This is hard to get in a very deep canyon which is dark most of the time. We must have got there at the right time of day in the right month.
The kids asked me that day if I would ever paint them, so thanks to them for putting up with me taking so many photos. Beautiful summer memories documented in another painting. ![]() "Shoreline Adventure" 12" x 16" Oil on Canvas Painting will be in OPA Salon.
