Here is the finished painting, "Gifts from the Sea", Oil, 22" x 28"©2013.  From what looked like a crazy start as you can see in the previous posts it all finally came together.  After staring at a painting for a week while working on it,  you have to put it aside for a bit and look at it again with fresh eyes to see if anything needs to be adjusted.  Always good to have an artist friend look at it too!

This is one is a series I'm preparing for my upcoming show at the Huntington Library.

To be continued . . .

Happy Painting!
