Woman in White at Beach, 12x16
..i had brushed in a background of the figure previously and completed a small study version, so now i can bust out some bigger brushes and have some fun...first 30 minutes always crucial in drawing and values, now to paint a bit thicker!

Chelsey at Leo Carrillo beach, plein air paintout August 2010
So this painting has been waiting to be finished for a while as i wasn't sure where to go next with it, but comparing it to my study on the day, which is the second one i completed as the sun broke through late morning and i had to stop the first study, i think its almost there, maybe a slighly foamier sea in the foreground and a little bit on the hands and i could call this done!...lets do it! :)

Two Young Ladies at the Beach
Late afternoon at the beach from late July, i had managed to paint them from life while i was doing a study of the headland, and i painted them onto a 6x8 inch to work out the poses more and see what i could do with the colour as it was laye afternoon, so i saw potential for pushing colour saturation more, but still find some of natures greys as there was moisture in the air which had a cooling effect even though the sun was low and clear!...

Figure of a Woman in an Orchard, 5x7 Inches Oil on canvas, Aug 5th 2015
...so i gessoed a load of older canvases last week, and this was in the back of my mind, so while waiting for a few others to dry i thought i would do this as a fun warm up exercise!!...yes just like going to the gym, we sometimes need to step back and loosen up, have a sense of dare, break the mould, and sometimes out of this fearlessness come triumph!!...its been a good day! :)
