I started this painting of a Florida beach quite some time ago. It was a different challenge to fill such a large space in any kind of interesting way. The shape being so oblong, I messed around with trying to fill in the blue without overwhelming the space. This one is about 24" by 48".
When I was finished, Sam really thought it needed some focal point. So there. A parasail. And golly, I'm going to have to practice that, because it ended up a little lame.
Now, I'm working on some itty bitty canvases. The challenge there is to be bold enough without underwhelming the viewer.
On the other hand, this one is 8X10.
Not a masterpiece, but it conveys the message. My main goal is to get my reading students to put their thoughts into words and pictures.
