Girl on the Beach


This is a painting I did recently on the shore of Long Island, in a pretty town called Greenport. It was windy, cloudy, sunny, cloudy again, etc, making the changing light effect difficult to capture. There is nothing like painting en plein air, fast - on the spot, to get your focus sharpened and your reflexes in high gear. No time to think - just paint!

That's gorgeous, I can feel the wind. I just checked out all your shoes. Beautiful stuff. I like the Latin shoes. I am sure that you would see alot of Parisians in those. Can you imagine wearing them to go painting en plein air with?
