6 x 6"oil on masonite

I had just finished a really complex painting, a scene that includes twenty people - one of those where I didn't think I could pull it off. It just takes patience and I think it's a winner. You'll see that piece in a few weeks - it'll be included in Howard/Mandville Gallery's Small Works Show. Needless to say, after that one, I felt the need to loosen up with a quick, simpler scene - a lifeguard on Hilton Head Island - a job where the uneventful is a good thing.
Love the simplicity of this. And the red umbrella!
ReplyDeleteGreat composition, love everything about this!
ReplyDeleteWell, I don't think this was that simple either. The composition is divine, paint handling excellent, you know that by now, but especialy the joie de vivre totally intact. YES!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scene. Wish I was there.
ReplyDeleteGreat colours, the neutrals really make that red parasol sing!
ReplyDeleteyou are so good with composing, where did you learn?. I love this painting,is very good
ReplyDeleteI really get that loose and relaxed feeling you talk about while looking at the painting. Just what I needed in this mad back to school rush.
