"The Cove" 9x12 oil on canvas using palette knife


I decided to use the successes from my earlier painting to do another beach scene. I am seeing more and more color. I removed houses and rocks that I didn't want in the painting. The houses made it too messy. I need to talk to another artist to learn how add houses without making them too detailed. I wish I could take a decent picture. I decided I need to stop for the afternoon so I can look the painting with a fresh view tomorrow. It is going into the freezer which is where I keep my oil palette. This keeps my paint fresh.
I am off to pottery classes tonight. I can't wait.
I need to take a nap first - oh and fold the laundry.
