Baby on the Beach

You will recognize this one from my previous painting "Beach Bum" - Originally I was going to do this square composition before I changed my mind and went with the elongated format. Well, since I changed my mind after transferring the sketch to the board - I had this one ready to go...

...or more like back in front of the easel...The horse show is done and over with and my house is "almost" back to normal. There are still few horse show related boxes in my living room and my suitcase is still out in the foyer (that one is waiting for my trip up north for my sister's wedding), but most of the stuff has been put away for next year...

To get back into the painting routine, I wanted to start with something that would bring warmth and relaxation into my life - Nothing better then a simple beach scene. Simple, relaxing and uncluttered...

It's been a while...

I took a short break from painting to concentrate on the upcoming Dressage Horse Show that I am organizing in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina (Asheville)...Next couple of weeks will be rough, but Hopefully I will find some time and inspiration to paint couple of pieces...Here is one that I worked on last night - With this one I took a loose approach -

Bottle and the Sea

Continuing with the sea -beach motif - I know, it's not cute and/or fuzzy - but it allowed me use up the paint leftovers from the "Beach Bum" painting...

Beach Baby

With all the fuzzy and cute little creatures, sometimes I feel the need to get out of my comfort zone and paint something different...Different but still cute! Here is a little boy on the beach...Name suggestions for this painting are welcomed...
