We drove down south today to Naalehu. Wonderful rocky coastlines and .....WIND! Set up to paint this rocky point and had much trouble shifting from realistic to abstract. I can't stop painting rocks instead of just massing them in, and I have trouble with the greens on top of the point......it keeps looking like a bad green toupee. After about an hours worth of painting in which my water blew over twice and my whole easel tipped over once, and I gashed open my hand trying to catch it................this is the results! I like the liveliness of the ocean.....this was a good learning experience.
