The Ocean
a slideshow of sand, waves and sunshine

Summer. The sand and seagulls, waves crashing and sand on the palette. Plein air at the ocean is sound, and scent, full of heat and birds, people lounging, walking and surfing. A favorite place to relax, it is a wonderful place to paint. An artist is challenged by crashing surf and changing tides. Nothing stays still at the beach while the jetties define the height of tides.
