East Beach 36 x 36 on Canvas








Last March I took a plein air workshop with Bill Davidson on St. Simon's Island, Georgia.  The class was a week of plein air painting.  We had a great time and met many artists.  We had a lot of challenges with the gnats one day on the marsh.  All of our paintings had dead gnats on them.  My favorite days were on the beach painting.  I took many photos and this is from on of them.  Luckily one of artist had a house on East Beach so we were able to work out of her house and on the beach.  This painting came from a morning of rain that was still around.  The sun was just starting to break through and shine on the water.  This painting is part of the Southern Artists, Southern Scenes at Anne Irwin Fine Art in Atlanta, Georgia.  The show is up for 3 weeks or so. Check it out if you have time.
