I've been late posting lately. Back busy at the gallery doing small paintings for gifts to sell there. The 2x2-4x4 are popular as easy to carry home.
Below are all local 8x10's except the two boats at Keauhou Bay which is 11x14. Top is Pine Trees beach and all the surfers there on a good wave day. The red surfboard is from a Maui photo I've always liked so finally did a painting based on it. We are back in the regular Friday painting sessions so more to come. One of these days I need to sort and get rid of the works I don't like as much.
This below is Kukio Beach where we haven't painted for a while but I always like this scene where have the surfboards waiting.
This is Kaloko Ponds where we often paint. I "cheated" by using my monocular to compress the distance and get the background rocks and trees closer.
This is Pahoehoe Park beach, just a mile from my home. It's scenic but not really a swimming beach although a few snorkelers use it now and then.
A lone surfboard and palm tree on a beach in Maui. More dunes there and not many lava rocks as the island is much older than the Big Island.
A view from Energy Lab Beach where I again cheated a little and compressed the distance in the interests of the composition. Artistic license it's called.
