Are you ready for another seascape? This is one of my favorites because of the blues, greens, lavender colors.
It has a little impasto....not too much.

Seascape Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Wave Painting, "Wall of Water" 16x20x.75" Oil SOLD
Lately, I have been painting seascapes. I always love painting and viewing seascapes. It's almost as soothing to me as a trip to the beach.
Of course, the first step for me IS a trip to the beach. I pick a day with my trusty camera and head for the sand. I count myself lucky if I get a few interesting shots.
For this painting, I used images from a trip to Barbados.

Isn't art wonderful?!

| A possible framing choice. How to capture the excitement of a breaking wave? I painted with a palette knife and could not capture the actual colors, but I think I came very close. Carol Schiff www.CarolSchiffStudio.etsy.com www.CarolASchiff.com |

Abstract Seascape, Abstract Sunset, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x8" SOLD
I am always fascinated by sunsets, especiall sunsets over water. This little study is my impressions of a sunset at Fernandina Beach harbor.
Of course, it bares no comparison to the actual photo(or the actual event) I took, but it did provide me with several hours of fun in the studio.
Such a simple piece should not have turned into the project I experienced, but as often happens, it did. I wanted just the right glow of colors.
It seems with me, a painting either falls off my brush or it is a major struggle. The falling off my brush part does not happen nearly as often as the major struggle. After 20+ years of painting, I imagined I would be further down the road. As my kids like to say, "it is what it is".
I try to appease myself by thinking if it were easy, it would be boring. Maybe so, but I could handle just a tad more boring,
Hope you have a great day. Thanks for stopping by.

Abstract Seascape Painting, Small Oil Painting, Tropical Ocean 8x8x1.5"
Fresh off a trip to the Florida Keys, I returned inspired by the gorgeous water colors. I started a new series I call "Coral Reef". This is the first piece of the series entitled "Wakes".
I was captivated with the colors of the sea as we rode out to the coral reef.

I was captivated with the colors of the sea as we rode out to the coral reef.
The boat wake followed us out seven miles from shore.
It was my first trip to the keys in many years, and a had forgotten the lure of the tropical beauty.

Small Seascape, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x8" Oil "Crashing Wave" by Carol Schiff Studio SOLD
In the past, I painted lots of seascapes, but in recent years, my focus has been on landscapes and flowers. Today, I went back to my roots....kind of.
I wanted to do a seascape, but something different than the past. I found one of my images of the surf and cropped it very closely.
I tried to paint with a variety of strokes and get plenty of action into the scene. I finished with scattering some "foam" . I enjoyed trying to bring something new to an old subject.
Thank you for reading my blog today!

Daily Painting | Small Oil Painting | Small Seascape |Tropical Waters by Carol Schiff | 6x8" Oil SOLD
If you follow this blog, you know how much I like to paint seascapes. Not just any seascapes, but scenes from my own little piece of the Atlantic.
 |
| SOLD |
The waves were coming in quickly on this day. I think a "tropical depression" was off shore. Tropical depression is a weatherman's term, several steps below a hurricane, but usually meaning the winds will kick up to some degree and rain is on the horizon. Of course, in Florida, this time of the year.....rain is always on the horizon.
This photo is a little wonky.....sorry! When I take photos of my paintings, I usually have 5-10 paintings to photograph, trying to get 5-6 shots of each. I get a little production line going...and I guess I didn't pay much attention to how this one was lined up :)

MY Painting in the Joker Movie!, Small Oil Paintings, Daily Painting, Still Life Painting,
How lucky can I be?
One of my paintings was recently purchased for set design in a new movie! The Warner Brothers movie, was filmed in Harlem, Manhattan and the Bronx., and stars Joaquin Phoenix and Robert De Niro. The title is "Joker".
The painting is one I completed in a workshop a few years back.
I am thrilled, and only hope it doesn't end up on the cutting room floor.
The movie was recently released, and I must say, IT WAS A GIANT HIT!!
