Shadows in Front - 6x6

Couldn't resist this, I loved how these guys were lit from behind with their shadows falling in front of them.  I didn't even care that they were so confused at why I was snapping photos in their direction.

State Street Shopping - 6x6

I took the whole weekend off from painting since it was my husbands birthday.  The sun came out just in time for it, it was a wonderful weekend! And there was a much larger turnout for the reception at the Red Door on Saturday than I expected.  I sold a few pieces, hopefully a few more will sell before the show ends this month.

Blue and White Stripes - 6x12

My husband saved me from an umbrella just like this one at the beach last weekend.  It had gotten a little windy and someone's umbrella had sprung loose, but for some reason the pointy end (not the umbrella part) was headed full speed at the back of my neck.  Luckily my husband is part jedi and caught it just inches before it hit me.  Thanks love :)

Beach Chat - 6x6

I had the best weekend! I love summer by the beach! My sister came down to visit and brought her raft/boat? I'm not sure what you call it, but she made me paddle out much farther than I expected.  Seals grunted at us, and we learned that creepy salamander like things live all over the kelp.  I got to play beach volleyball on Sunday, something I haven't gotten to do in years, SO much fun! 

And of course there's lots of people around on the beach, which makes it the best time to practice these types of paintings :)

Sunset Walk - 6x6

Well I spent A LONG time yesterday putting frames together, wiring, hammering, attaching the 6 screws per frame... I wish I could find the drill... that would be helpful, and I'm still not done.  My hands and arms are killing me! I wish I could hire a minion to do all my framing for me :) 

Good news is I've finally finished enough paintings for the upcoming shows, so now I can actually sell some again!  This one will be my very first auction piece, on the new painting site I just joined.  I've set the start price pretty low so check it out!
