I really enjoyed creating this art. Sometimes it is nice to just get in the zone, no particular plan, and let the subconscious take over.<br />
<br />
I love playing with paint and these represent some of my favorite colors. I didn't plan to do a seascape, but it feels like one, especially of the tropical waters in the Caribbean Islands.<br />
<br />
The last few months have been hectic for me. This is just what I needed to calm me down.<br />
<br />
Have a great day and thanks for reading my blog.<br />

Yes, I said grab my camera, not my paints. I am a studio painter. I quickly get over-whelmed with plein aire and have no desire to try it again. Give me my air conditioning, plumbing and subject matter that doesn't change.<br />

Actually, I have so much respect for artists that strap a 36x48" canvas on their back and then hike 7,000 feet to the top of a mountain to paint. Such dedication, and yes, the light cannot be duplicated. But, neither can those special effects you can capture with a camera. </span><br />

I am very happy with the understated color which makes the brighter hues really pop. I am not sure if it would be call an abstract or impressionistic.......what do you think?<br />
<br />
What I do know, I really enjoyed painting it and want to try it again and go BIG!<br />
<br />

He was designing his 2017 Spring/Summer Line, and wanted to use one of my paintings in his work. I agreed to work with him, and we found two of my artworks that were of interest to him.<br />
<br />
For several months, I heard nothing! Then, suddenly, an email with the completed designs.<br />

This is the fun part of what I do. I sometimes struggle for days, over a specific artwork. Just this week, I have worked on a piece for 3 days, and scrapped it this morning! Then there are the boring hours, after hours, of internet work. Taking photos, editing them, posting them. Sometimes it seems the reward, is not enough to justify the effort. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But then, one day, a painting effortlessly falls off my brush, or a student sends me his power point presentation about how he was influenced by my art, or someone on the other side of the world, likes my work enough to place it in his collection.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That is the payoff!</div>

I marvel at the beautiful mountain scenes outside my door. Asheville has sooo much to offer!<br />
<div>

But there is something it cannot offer...the beach, the sea, the salt air. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>

Maybe that is why I was moved to do this abstract.</div>

I got interested in doing seascapes. I was at the beach with my camera and was inspired by all the beautiful blues and greens in the water. I did 3 8x10's and 4 5x7's, so far. This is the first one I did and probably my favorite.Carol Schiff Daily Paintinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03992811279109092289noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6221497946698227838.post-74052644455933976152022-02-17T14:32:00.000-08:002022-02-17T14:32:46.102-08:00A day at the beach is always a good thing.Stop and smell the salt spray with these seascape paintings.<br />

If this looks a little familiar, it is because I posted the study for this work a month or two ago.<br />

I really enjoyed creating this art. Sometimes it is nice to just get in the zone, no particular plan, and let the subconscious take over.<br />
<br />
I love playing with paint and these represent some of my favorite colors. I didn't plan to do a seascape, but it feels like one, especially of the tropical waters in the Caribbean Islands.<br />
<br />
The last few months have been hectic for me. This is just what I needed to calm me down.<br />
<br />
Have a great day and thanks for reading my blog.<br />

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.</div>

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 :)</div>

This summer, we have been tied to home and we are missing our annual trips to the mountains. We will be there soon and will really appreciate getting a chance to leave this hot and humid weather behind for a stay in the cool mountain country. How do you spend your summer?</div>

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.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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".<br />
<br />
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,<br />
<br />
Hope you have a great day. Thanks for stopping by.<br />

I really enjoyed creating this art. Sometimes it is nice to just get in the zone, no particular plan, and let the subconscious take over.<br />
<br />
I love playing with paint and these represent some of my favorite colors. I didn't plan to do a seascape, but it feels like one, especially of the tropical waters in the Caribbean Islands.<br />
<br />
The last few months have been hectic for me. This is just what I needed to calm me down.<br />
<br />
Have a great day and thanks for reading my blog.<br />

Just as I arrive, the sun starts it's slow climb above the horizon. I have forgotten how peaceful and beautiful it is on the beach at this time of day. Way down the beach, I can see a fisherman, but other than him we are alone with the birds who are looking for breakfast.<br />
<br />
It is so enjoyable here, cool, serene.....I feel refreshed and ready to start my day.<br />
<br />
Do you have a happy place too?<br />
<br />
This painting was commissioned by a client who saw a similar work on my<a href="http://www.carolschiffstudio.etsy.com/"> Etsy site</a>. The piece she wanted was already sold. I was happy to do a similar painting in the size she desired.<br />
