Beach Blues

Beach Blues, Oil
Beach Blues
This painting is characterized by its strong contrast in values. The tide was low with an afternoon sun providing a very sharp light to the composition. I wanted to unify the sky and the water with the overall blue tone to show how influenced one is to the other. The orange tints in the sand made for a good complementary color scheme.
