Happy World Watercolor Day before it’s gone! Original Painted on Arches 140lb.

October is a busy month. I've just returned from a workshop up in New York with Eudes Correia. Normally, I wouldn't paint the splashy background, as that is very much Eudes's style, but we were encouraged to paint 'like Eudes' for our last workshop painting, so splash it was. This is actually my second painting of 'Peter' which I finished after a helpful critique by Eudes of my first. I feel fortunate to live within a day's drive from this beautiful workshop venue with nice hosts and featured world master watercolor artists.

The last of three paintings I finished for our oldest son, Ryan. I have always called this area beach in Aruba 'Malmok' but now I've noticed some calling it 'Boca Catalina' although I've always thought that was the rocky cove a little further east 🤷🏻‍♀️. Whatever you call it, it's a pretty spot when it's not too crowded.
