My Friend Kelly's Beach Day, 6x6 Inches, Oil

NFS

This painting was posted on Facebook by my friend Kelly M., who had a wonderful tropical vacation recently.  It is my contribution to the Girls Just Wanna Paint Challenge - Beach Day.  I was entranced by the yellow umbrella against the blue sky.... I altered the chair(s) under it and put a figure in to change it up a bit.

In other news, my one day figure workshop last Friday was SO fun!  Everyone did SUCH a great job!  Here are my 'kids'
I'll post more photos of them and their pieces on Facebook!

  1. Beach paintings are always so full of joy! This is no exception with the joy expressed through the blue and yellow color combo. Your class did indeed do a beautiful job. Did the one lady manage two pieces? Wow!
