Snow storm over the Machias river


I finished this in half an hour. Being quick has its disadvantages. I made a blob in the middle of the sky that I couldn't get rid of. I wanted to post it any way.

South Beach




I have been wanting to paint a winter scene, however, I was looking at some pictures and found this one taken on vacation to south beach. I have taken a lot of them with colorful umbrellas and seats. The wind was blowing and the sea was rough. When I first painted the sand it was very orangy. I glazed it with two layers of cobalt turqouise. It is amazing what glazing could do. Enjoy!
