Seascape Painting, Palette Knife Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x8" Textured Seascape

I wanted to do a seascape, or actually a beach painting, somewhere between an abstract and impressionism.

SOLD

I wanted to record just my memories and impressions of trips to the beach.  I painted with a knife and tried to work quickly.

I tried not to think too much about the colors I was using or where I was putting them, but tried to keep it really instinctive.

I wanted plenty of texture in this piece.

It was a fun exercise!

Thanks for viewing my blog today.

We have just returned from a trip to Asheville.  The leaves were in full color and we had a lovely drive on the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Autumn Maple Tree Landscape Painting, Palette Knife Technique, Asheville Fall Foliage Art, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting

 It's that time of year and we are soon on our way to Asheville to see the gorgeous fall foliage.  So....I got inspired to paint this piece from an image of our own red maple tree.

Purchase Here

The trees are beautiful at any time of year, but they really glow in the fall.

I felt it deserved a textured palette knife treatment, which I think really adds to the finished piece.

Enjoy!

A Beach Day Palette Knife Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Textured Landscape Artwork, Beach House Decor

 I am back working with my palette knife again.  Something about the thick paint and texture is very satisfying to me.

This makes me want to get to the beach..........quickly!

Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Small Seascape, "Celebrating Blue" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil SOLD

I worked this small seascape with a knife, trying to mimic the action of the waves with my strokes.

SOLD

I usually work from images on my computer, but this time the image was in my head.  I tried to fill the canvas with shades of blues and greens, and also to suggest a little of the beach.

I feel I captured the spirit of the waves rushing to shore, and I must say, it was a most enjoyable experience.  I plan to try this technique again.
