Beach and Ocean, "Cloud Shimmer," by Amy Whitehouse
6" x 6" Oil, $150
Created during my recent Florida painting retreat,
this remains one of my favorites.
I'm reminded of the warm sun lighting the clean sand,
and the clouds providing shade on the same stretch of beach.
The lull of the waves, the fluffy clouds, the squawk of a seabird:
nature at its loveliest.

Beach and Ocean Paintings, "Perfect Day," by Amy Whitehouse
8" x 8" Oil, $200
A seascape inspired by my time in Fernandina Beach, FL,
this looks like a perfect day at the beach.
The huge clouds are moving shadows across
the wide expanse of sand.
The beautiful waves rhythmically soothe
the beachcomber.
The colors of the water, clouds, foam, and sand
complement each other and bring the viewer oceanside.

Contemporary Watercolor Seascape, "Perfect Beach Day," by Amy Whitehouse
Watercolor, approximately 6"x12" $150
While at the beach last month I did a few watercolor paintings,
enjoying my other medium.
I like this one because of the texture of sand, gentle surf, and peek of a sun in the clouds.

Contemporary Seascape, "Clouds and Shimmer," by Amy Whitehouse
Oil, 6"x6" $125 + shipping
As my painting retreat at the beach comes to a close,
I'm finishing up some final paintings.
The bright reflections juxtaposed with dark beaches -
a result of cloudy skies -
are endlessly appealing.
I delight in gazing at the beauty of nature
as well as in attempting to express it on canvas.

I came back to the house to paint.

of the sky on the incoming water.

I wanted my painting to shimmer.

Lots of texture and complimentary colors
give this contemporary sunrise painting
its punch.

and repeated this process over several weeks.

Thunderstorm, Beach and Ocean Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse
Oil, 11" x 14" $500
This latest work was completed two days ago.
It's one of my favorites from this past year.
I used a very large brush to lay in the composition and
large areas of color, then refined it with a medium-sized brush.
The thickest areas of Brilliant White oil paint were applied
primarily with a palette knife.
The beach and ocean provide endless interpretations,
expressions, feelings, and art opportunities all-around.

this contemporary beach painting is full of color and texture.
Painted with pure pigment oil sticks, the vibrancy stands out.
I hope I captured the many reflections seen on the beach
when the tide is out, and the day is coming to its end.
