Day 13 of 30 Days "Beach Butts"

Hey Friends,  Did not think it would happen so quick.  Running out of time, running out of paintings.  But that's what has happened.  This past week was busy with family stuff and not feeling so swell, as in NO SUN depression.  So I'm cheating a bit.  This was painted some time ago and the photos were taken in the Tampa, Fl. area. 
I wanted every painting to be from the trip to Myrtle Beach.  I have about 5 in various stages but none dry enough to scan.  They should be dry enough by tomorrow, so then I'll just carry on.

New Ideas !!

Hey Friends, I know it's a bit odd - me posting twice in one week but........I had a couple of ideas (yeah-that's odd too!) and was wondering what others thought.

Yeah, I'll probably do this anyway 'cuz I'm a bit hardheaded. I thought of 2 new series for paintings. First is the "Good Dog" series. My daughter had to put her dog "Ebony" asleep last week and then I saw a collar with GOOD DOG cross stitched on it and Boing a tiny lightbulb came on. So the Dalmation mix above is the first, testing the waters, so to speak.

I like it a lot and I've already painted my daughters dog too. It's not dry or I would have scanned it, to show you. I can see the fun coming up !

The second idea I thought I might call "BEACH BUTTS" or is that too crude? A friend gave me a couple photos of her boys from their last beach trip. I like the way it turned out. I have a hard time painting loose so it really stokes the old fire when I accomplish loose brush work. I ran out of the studio so I wouldn't keep fiddling with it. I drive myself crazy being such a noodler.

I can already picture a couple of paintings with babies I know.

So tell me what you think and have a wonderful weekend.

Happy Trails.
