Making a Splash 6x6 oil on canvas $75



  This is another in the series children and the beach. Here I attempt to capture the glee of a young girl as she splashes in the water. Is she splashing just to make an impression, or perhaps a brother or friend is outside the canvas and she is attempting to splash them. Regardless, her body language is one of unabashed glee. The oil is over a loosely painted under painting of magenta acrylic. I have found myself gravitating to its use more frequently as it lends a nice glow to the painting.
