Morning Calm
6x8, Soft Pastel
Morning Calm was painted in my hotel room while visiting the Oregon Coast. I particularly like the ocean and all things nautical...especially in the early morning or late evening hours. Everything seems just a little more sleepy and peaceful. While painting it, I just wanted to climb up in this little dingy and take a nap. I may paint a larger version of this one since I didn't have my best pastels with me and struggled a bit with getting just the right colors. "We'll see" (that's my new mantra).
Well, you've certainly captured everything you described despite not having your best pastels. Just lovely.

The gold shine on the side of the boat is my favorite!
