I love how this one turned out.  When I started it I expected it to be painful and challenging to complete, but it turned out to be one of those rare wonderful happenings where the painting you want just flows right into existence.  

I'm excited about today, I have lots of time to paint this afternoon and I'm going to try out a few new techniques.  Maybe something good will happen :)

Palms on the Beach - Santa Barbara Landscape - 6x6

beach carpinteria painting daily painting for sale ocean palm tree painting sand santa barbara oil painting

I really liked the shadows around these palm trees around sunset last night. Trying to get more motivated to paint on my larger surfaces again. Sometimes I feel like it's big commitment, and I should just see how it turns out on a smaller size first.

Tall and Slender, Dusk - Carpinteria Palm Trees - 6x12

California carpinteria painting daily painting dusk for sale palm trees

This is another version of a painting I did a few weeks ago. But at sunset instead of early morning. I really liked the first one, but I think I like this one even more. I didn't know if I would be able to portray the time of day accurately, but I'm really happy with how it turned out.
