Remembering summer at the beach.

 Although I wasn't attempting to create any one place, I had used as one of my reference photos, a shot of the entrance to Saints Rest Beach in Saint John, N.B.  Many people recognized the atmosphere of the location even with most of the detail removed and other items moved or changed to make a good painting. 

I titled the work "Homeward Bound" because as I was painting I was missing the beach and my thoughts and heart went out to the many friends I have who are working so far away from home and in most cases, away from family as well.  My longing for the beach pales next to their homesickness. This work is a tribute to those who give up so much to keep it all together.

With the frame, this painting measures around 24 x 24 inches as it is in a wood frame with a white liner, around 4 inches wide.

Please message me for more details or a photo of the framed painting.
