Great Painting. Good composition of houses on the beach. Very nice and original. José

Great subject. I used to live on the East coast and so many cities look alike.

Artist Reply: Thank you again. The beach is becoming a land of condo's and it is sad but, most of the old isolated sections are covered in the concrete jungle now and common people can not even go and enjoy the beach for sign saying keep off, It is just sad. I wish we could just keep it natural and leave things alone. Thanks for your comments.:)

This is great! Nice angular forms to make the statement stronger.

HA SO EXCELLENT, KAREN. LOVE THIS BEAUTY.

Artist Reply: Thank you Sharon, its my protest painting! they are building too many condo's and ordinary people can not hardly move around for all the condo's on the beach... the beach is too beautiful here to be cover in concrete condo's!This is part of my save our beaches series. I can go on, and on... :)

No, we don't...LOL..but your painting is wonderful.

Artist Reply: Thank you for your comments on my work, I did this painting after a trip to the beach, there are so many condo's you can hardly walk down the beach without running into a sign that read new condo coming soon... and to me it is sad that the beach is so beautiful to be clutter with big buildings, so this is a protest painting in a sense. :)
