Florida Sea Birds, "Little Friend," by Amy Whitehouse
Oil, 8" x 8" $100
Having landed in my home state of Florida,
my annual painting retreat has begun.
This is my first painting for this season.
This seagull stood and looked in my eyes for several minutes
before she walked away and then flew into the sea breeze.
I loved the connection.

Beach and Ocean, "Coastal Sunset," by Amy Whitehouse

The sunset is lighting up the ocean water and foam of the waves.
At such times there is a translucent quality in part of the roiling wave
which I somehow was able to capture. Luck!

I want to be there now.

Beach and Ocean Paintings, "Perfect Day," by Amy Whitehouse
8" x 8" Oil, $200
A seascape inspired by my time in Fernandina Beach, FL,
this looks like a perfect day at the beach.
The huge clouds are moving shadows across
the wide expanse of sand.
The beautiful waves rhythmically soothe
the beachcomber.
The colors of the water, clouds, foam, and sand
complement each other and bring the viewer oceanside.

as well as in attempting to express it on canvas.

Contemporary Beach, "Sand Dunes 2," by Amy Whitehouse
6"x8" Oil, $125
In order to get from the rental beach house to the beach each day,
I must navigate a couple of mildly steep sand dunes.
As I plod up and down the soft loose ground,
keeping an eye out for Florida critters,
I marvel at the beautiful lit colors the sun gives
to simple sand.
