Just the Sea and the Sky

The sheer joy of children is such a ray of sunshine to the older generation, jaded by the passage of time.

Jackie catches through body language the natural exuberance of a child experiencing the sea, the wind and the waves on a beautiful sunny day.

Learn in your painting how to show waves washing a sandy beach. Strong highlights are typical in any scene depicting the paradise and sunshine in SW Florida. This painting will be suitable for hanging or gifting. Jackie always brings us wonderful original designs and this is no exception.

March PHOTO Gallery
Painters all created beautiful sea and surf meeting the sand based on Jackie’s able instruction. Applying the joyful child pattern to the canvas was almost a surprise as a large area of the background was covered! We painted like ‘real’ artists mixing colors we needed …NO bottles of paint today! Our skin tones varied from that of a first day of vacation in the sun to a child with skin darkened by many trips to the beach. Thanks, Jackie, for helping us have a fun day painting.

Keep inviting your guests. We know how to make everyone feel welcome and appreciated.
