Service Beach, Venice

 
Service Beach, Venice

6" x 8"

   Yesterday morning,  plein air painting in the dunes at Service Beach with my artist friend.  One of the benefits of living in Florida in February, pushing a paintbrush instead of a snow shovel.  Painted on panel over extra heavy gesso.  Like the way this brushstroke texture shows through on a loose painting.  Like the golden, greenish color of the Gulf when the sun strikes it and the cobalt blue sky patch.
