looking back

  I recently had an opportunity to get together with some college girlfriends at the beach. One day we ventured out to Rosemary Beach and I stalked people on bikes while my friends did a little shopping.  I really feel like a creeper sometimes.  I think men would really have a hard time doing what I do.  Who is going to believe he is going to paint the girls he is photographing?  I try to be fairly discreet while I am snapping away because I am looking for candid shots.  I am waiting for the day that I am arrested and my mug shot is in the local "busted" paper.  Maybe Karin Jurick will paint it.
This is painted on an 11 x 14 x 2".  I have two more that I am going to do for this series.

  1. Your words made me laugh; your painting makes me smile! A great candid of this young woman...I wonder if she was looking back to see what you were photographing?

  2. So funny! My husband goes out with me when I take candid pix...I always tell him to be extra careful and carry my business card in his pocket in case anyone asks!

    Love the painting....bright colors...beautiful!
