Here's a 9" x 12" acrylic painting I started on my recent camping trip to the Oregon Coast. I had so much fun painting and visiting with friends old and new.

It had been years since I had been to the beach and when I first smelled the ocean air it felt like a weight lifting off of me. Big sigh and big smiles 🙂

This one is called "Beachy Morning" and is available in my Etsy shop, or directly from me if you are local.

Color. Rich, deep, vibrant color. I translate the ordinary world around me into a fantasy world. My world. Houses, streets, yards, rivers, trees, people, birds, animals. I paint them “as if”. As if their pure clear nature was shining through. To me, that is about color. Simple forms and layers of color. Ordinary everyday images from my life, but not muffled by reality. Not complicated by the grimy detail of life. I paint until I feel I could dive in to the image. Swim around in lakes of color. Comfortable, familiar, light.
