Tim on the Beach

We're back in FL once again, sold the VT house and made the big move. This painting is 8x8", acrylic on canvas, painted from a combo of photos of Tim, my hubby, reading in a deck chair in Maine last summer, and a photo of the beach in New Smyrna Beach, FL where we live. I just took a workshop from a wonderful FL artist, Jane Slivka, http://www.janeslivkagallery.com/ who lives in Mt. Dora, southwest of Deland. She studied with Steven Quiller and Robt. Burridge so is a colorist and free spirit who paints luscious loose works: FL landscape and architecture as well as some Caribbean scenes. I love her painterly style.
