Edisto Beach

Pin It

"EDISTO BEACH"
5 X 7 palette knife oil painting on panel
framed 3" gold frame

Edisto Beach is very close to our home south of Charleston.
It is our favorite beach to walk at.
Quite often, we are the only ones there! Of course, in the summer... it s packed!
On this day, the clouds were big and boisterous with the threat of a summer shower. 
The tide was going out and the cloud reflections on the wet sand were magnificent.

ACE Basin Autumn

Pin It

ACE Basin Winter
The ACE Basin is another special place here in the Charleston area. I always forget how big it is, but it's HUGE! A preserve that encompasses the boundaries of 3 rivers, all beginning with the letters A, C, and E.  Hubby and I go there for walks frequently and enjoy a peaceful time with nature which sometimes means: eagles, alligators, snakes and lots of birds. I'm sure there are many more critters but these are the ones we have encountered!  There is also an old plantation home there, 
Grove Plantation. One day, I will paint it. 

This painting is actually a redo. I painted it earlier this year and was not quite happy with it, so I pulled it and in a little bit of time, was able to give it the look I had wanted to begin with.  
I had also intended to participate in the 30 day challenge in September and it is now day 10 and just getting started.  Story of my life! Messed up priorities! What other excuse can I come up with?
