In the studio : “Beach Day”

With winter approaching, summer feels far in the past, and too far off in the future. Having completed a commission and a new piece for a new gallery, felt it was time to do a summer piece, which prompted this quick sketch of a scene I encountered a summer or two ago in Provincetown. “Beach Day” will be underway soon, on a large 52 x 52 canvas. If you can’t have a beach day, might as well paint one.
