Something Different For Me, A Small Painting! Acrylic 5" x 7"


"I Love The Ocean"

It is very unusual that I paint on such a small scale, 5" x 7".  
I could paint ocean waves forever.
The top photo is the first phase of this work.  
The Bottom photo is the final stage?  
Maybe?  
I am constantly working on when, if ever, to stop.

The photo below is of the palette I chose for this work.  I thought I would limit it to just a few basic colors.

    I may continue to do small pieces again. So different for me to use small brushes!
