Breezy Morning, wildlife, great egret, landscape


"Breezy Morn"


Re-posting this older demonstration painting because I just added more detail and the great white egret.  I felt like this painting needed some life!  I also love the back-lit foliage.  During the painting class, I stressed the importance of irregular shapes in the clouds and the bushes.  Any time you can repeat similar shapes it creates rhythm and harmony in a composition.  Notice how the shapes in the clouds are repeated in the bushes that are back-lit!

Enjoy!

Waves, Pacific Ocean, seascape


"Waves"
(original class demo painting)

Created for my adult painting classes.  Added the tree for more interest.  This one came from an art instruction book, only it was a night scene and we did it with daylight colors to brighten it up.
The curve of the wave is a challenge to capture, so sometimes we end up with more rocks and splash than transparent waves!

Ready to frame.
