6x8 oil
This is from another photo I took in Henlopen. I witnessed this young girl and her two dogs run down the beach to the water and all 3 of them started jumping and splashing around. It is the same feeling of joyful elation that I feel when I finally reach the ocean.
I am happy that I have been able to post 3 times in 3 days this week. Soon my client work will pick up again, so I am taking advantage of the time.
Tonight begins my oil painting class at the Mechanicsburg Art Center. I have designed the class as a series of painting "challenges" much like the ones on the DPP challenge blog. Every week we will be doing a different challenge and each one is designed to instruct as well as push the student in (hopefully) a fun way. I am looking forward to it and know I will be learning from my students as well.

Enjoying your beach scenes! I especially liked the grassy dune you did early, although I didn't comment on it. Slumps are normal. Pretty much by every evening I'm in a slump.. but then morning comes and I'm ready to start again. Thank God for mornings. And Spring. Spring is coming. It always shows up sooner or later.
I am loving your beach scenes too Julie. The dogs in the water and just the whole composition on this one are beautiful!
Thanks Michael and Christine for your nice comments. It is nice to paint things that make you happy!
