Oceans ~~~~~^^^~~~~




So I've realized I really like painting the ocean. It's relaxing and I don't have to be perfectionist about it. I have lots of fun and can just let go and focus on the music and the colors. I almost feel they give off a calming or free feeling to the viewer... or well at least for me. Also a little of my inspiration may have come from PJ songs, Eddie Vedder is always referencing the ocean. It kinda inspired me. So these are all the ocean paintings I've done so far. I have a few more in mind still to come. Keep in mind the color from the photograph doesn't do the painting justice. It looks much better in person. The greens and yellows don't seem to show up with my camera.
