Description
While driving down the beach one sunny day, my eyes were soaking in all the colors of the houses. When I saw the complementary pair of yellow next to my favorite blue-violet, I had to stop and take a bunch of photos. I combined several to get a panoramic, corrected for distortion, downplayed the houses in the distance and to the right, and increased the chroma and contrast on the focal area. My plein air paintings help me keep even my studio work looking fresh and not like a photo.

This is really nice reminds me of beach homes in Galveston TX or St. Augustine. Wonderful piece. L/ F
