I like to buy canvases by the box....I don't make a painting a day like some do...(well sometimes :))...but my mind certainly flows into the next painting...and it is a good thing to just grab another canvas ready to go.
This one is the 3rd canvas from my box of 6.

Here is a new one...a happy one. Raspberry Garden Party...Although it took a few tries to get here. I really think I could have stopped painting this one 2 times previously. I took photos at 2 different stages where I felt that I had a finish, but I kept on pushing and pressing, and I like it at this stage and think of the others as ideas or roughed out plans for 2 new paintings later. There is certainly more texture on the surface because of the layers of paint underneath.

I
Titles;...sometimes they come easy..and sometimes they don't....they are necessary....and sometimes I think of song titles that might fit...I wanted to use "Walk don't Run"...it popped into my head and I thought that it fit perfectly, but...that's not my title, it belongs to The Ventures ...yes, it's surf and beach...because I seem to be gathering all my work from collective memories of the beach....Anyway, I came up with an alternative...Rosewater Beach Party...which has been shortened to Rosewater beach, or just Rosewater :)
This painting is Raw...and un-fussed with! I put it down bravely one morning on canvas with exuberance and child-like joy...and I just plain "felt" it. ...like I said , it's kind of raw and thinly painted ...but it is pure and deliberate!...and I hope will lead on to the next better painting. :)
