Tropical Beach ACEO in acrlyics

I needed a break from painting detail so decided to paint this little seascape scene.  I added the birds as I thought it added a bit of interest.  It was fun painting a little seascape for a change so will have to look for some more reference photos. I will have to look into  buying a miniature fan brush as it would make painting the palm trees a lot easier.

Tropical Beach measures 2.5 x 3.5 inches and is painted on 300gsm smooth Arches watercolour paper.

Many thanks to Barbara Norton for the reference photo.

Tropical Island in oils

I had fun painting this one.  Could imagine myself on holiday there.  Nice and peaceful and sunny.  We have been having a strange summer.  February is usually our  hottest month but so far it has been much cooler than normal.    Raining here at the moment and the weather prediction is for more rain for the rest of the week.  At least everything is nice and green. 

Tropical Island is 6 x 6 inches and is painting on Ampersand Gessobord.
