Hi everyone...Welcome to my art! This is a 16 X 20 oil on canvas painting. It was chosen to hang in the Governor's offices in Atlanta for 6 months. Sorry about some areas that got ruined by a bad bottle of Liquin that I used to coat my paintings. It has streaked and yellowed and I don't know what to do about it! Some of my paintings are so bad, I will probably have to repaint the worst areas...not fun!!! Anyway, if anybody has a suggestion, I would appreciate any help I can get! Thank you in advance for your comments/suggestions!! I hope you enjoyed your visit today and please stop back again! :) Have a wonderful week!! :) *********** The second picture is the same painting properly cured and almost like new thanks to fellow artist, Gerald Dextraze!! It's amazing what some sun will do!!!

This is a Notable, Memorable and Absorbing work, Which is liberally Doused with Industrial Strength Attractiveness!

Artist Reply: Thanks again for the lovely comments, John!! Unfortunately, the "cleaned up" picture no longer shows! :)

I see this painting just outstanding, I hope someone can help...

Artist Reply: I appreciate your gracious remarks, Naomi!! :) Actually, another AW artist did come to my rescue! :) I will upload the "fixed" picture soon. The paintings weren't cured properly and he told me to put them in the sun and the results are AMAZING!!! I didn't have to do a thing!! I still have several in windows now. I have uploaded pictures since that were totally ruined and are now perfect!! I owe him sooo much!!

Beautiful scene! I'm just fascinated by the colours and textures in the sea. Reminds me of family holidays when I was a kid, we'd always find these little coves tucked away, far from the tourist beaches...

Stunning painting, Ruth! I love coulours of the sea and waves. The silhouettes of the seagulls, the cloud shapes,all conveys the movement of fresh air at seaside. Lonely figure watching the waters is very romantic!
