breezy

 
This is not exactly a daily painting. This might be considered a two daily painting. I painted this on a 20 x 30" gallery wrap canvas. Big for me. I always feel like I lose some of the character when I paint larger. I know I tightened up. I find myself sitting too close to the canvas . I see very well at a distance but am becoming far sighted. Trying to figure what works best.
This girl would have definitely turned heads on the beach. I have lots more beach pictures that I look forward to painting. NOT this large.
