North Beach

"North Beach" is a 14" x 18" study for a larger oil painting.  It depicts a morning in the autumn on North Beach, Seabrook Island, South Carolina.  There were a few walkers, but otherwise the beach was empty.  It's a peaceful place to be-- The only sounds are from waves and birds.

Stono River Marsh

This marsh is part of the Stono River, near Charleston. In the winter, the marsh grass turns a golden color. The trees are mainly tall southern pines. The colors in this painting are as rich as those in Marsh in Winter-- they just don't show up that way in the photo.
