three star seaside
12" x 16" oil on panel

I ran away to the beach earlier this month with my friend Shane Miller. We got to our room just as the sun was setting and I challenged myself to try to paint the color I could see after the sun had set; to paint the colors of night, before the darkness blotted them all out. This kind of painting has to be done quickly, which leaves little time to worry about mixing this or that color... I had to work quickly, and am very fond of the result. Sometimes less is more.
