Children on Swim Beach

This is the second painting I did from the photos I took of the children near the water on Swim Beach on Monhegan Island.  I painted the same little girl in the white dress but this time she had a friend. The two of them were standing in the water looking out at the ocean. It was very hot and sunny that day. What a nice way to cool off.

Touching Water

I recently went through my old photo collection and came across one of my son when he was little. It brought back many happy memories of all the times we spent at the beach. I was inspired to do this little painting.
