Coastal Waves

Here is another look at a step in the progress of this 24x36 painting. You can only imagine my relief to finally finish painting trees. It took nearly 50 hours!! However, it was so much fun painting the mist around the orca. I will post the finished painting soon. #artist #artistsoninstagram #bcartist #vancouverislandartist #canadianartist #vancouverislandnorth #vancouverisland #art #painting #acrylic #acrylicpainting #fineart #originalart #originalpainting #westcoast #westcoastart #canadianartdaily #whales #beach #ocean #artofisolation #newartist #newartwork #onlineart #artinprogress #landscapepainting #artlovers #orca #emergingartist #artinspiration

Another look at a step in the process. These steps, including the previous two and future postings, each represent at least 25 hours of either prep, painting, or repainting until I figured it out. Maybe you noticed some dorsal fins coming into the scene? I will post again soon and show the orca making their debut. #artist #artistsoninstagram #bcartist #vancouverislandartist #canadianartist #vancouverislandnorth #vancouverisland #art #painting #acrylic #acrylicpainting #fineart #originalart #originalpainting #westcoast #westcoastart #canadianartdaily #whales #beach #ocean #artofisolation #newartist #newartwork #onlineart #artin progress #landscapepainting #artlovers #orca #emergingartist

Another sneak peek. This is only a 14x18 piece of the 24x36 canvas. Lots of small brush strokes. I am excited to show you more soon. #artist #artistsoninstagram #bcartist #vancouverislandartist #canadianartist #vancouverislandnorth #vancouverisland #art #painting #acrylic #acrylicpainting #fineart #originalart #originalpainting #westcoast #westcoastart #canadianartdaily #whales #beach #ocean #artofisolation #newartist #newartwork #onlineart #artinprogress #landscapepainting #artlovers #orca #emergingartist

I thought I would once again share some photos of several progressive steps in my latest painting. This is à 24x36 canvas, it took over 100 hours, and 4 detail brushes to complete.
