With two weeks left until school starts, 4th grade! 2nd grade!, the weather has been great and I have been wanting beach time. This is our local beach, those of you who follow my blog have seen this point before...I've painted & photographed it a bunch. It's the beach I can walk to and often walk, run or bike past.
Ahhh...hello beauty |
Hello pelicans |
Hello sketchbook. Watercolor pencils at the beach and then filled in with watercolors at home. |
I would love love love to have a beach like this nearby, but alas, they're hard to come by in Kansas. I'm not sure I would ever feel like I could do it justice in a drawing, but if I saw it every day.

Beautiful beach and drawing. You have such a peaceful view to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteHa - we are also entering 2nd and 4th... started a few weeks ago. Not bad, but I'd rather be on your beautiful beach! I love the shot of the pelicans especially.
ReplyDeleteThanks Everyone! We decided to return to the beach on Tuesday and about 1 hour after we left a surfer spotted a Great White Shark not 100 yards from where my kids were swimming and bogey boarding! Yikes!!!
ReplyDeleteEven though I don't like the sun too much, now I wish I could escape the hot and humid city of Milan and put my feet into the sea... Great work!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I didn't know pelicans fly in formation like that. I'm jealous of your beach. Your paintings are lovely, both this one and the one posted for IF "freeze". You have a great feel for sea colors!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on the little mantra illustration on my blog. If you do print it, I hope it works for you like it does for me! :)
