Wednesday, June 21, 2023 11:05am. Ah, yes. It just seems proper to help ID the painting that the lighthouse puts in an appearance

Watch the painting as it progresses! More to come...

Wednesday, June 21, 2023 1:20pm. The stars of the show are starting to walk onto the set.

Wednesday, June 21, 2023 3:40pm Details, details...some birds flew in, the lighthouse is growing. Debating on one of the mares giving birth.

Wednesday, June 21, 2023 8:03pm Done for the day. We'll see if I do any more tomorrow.

Thursday, June 22, 2023 8:38am. One of the mares finally gave birth. Working on the new little guy and then tweaking - I'm thinking I'm at that point.

What Brought About this Painting?

I was thinking this morning I would paint more ocean waves but then thought to add some sea birds. And what are sea birds ALWAYS doing? Looking for food. These two want Doritos in particular.

Painting in Progress Images…

Friday, July 30, 2021 12:50 PM I just started this painting this morning and this is where I am at the moment. These birds have good taste as they hope the beach crawling humans will toss them some of those Doritos. Or popcorn if you don't have any Doritos. Maybe bread spread with Nutella?

Post 129: Beach Holiday, 6x6 Acrylic on Stretched Canvas

Painting Name: Beach Holiday

Grab the shades, the sunscreen, the beach towel, it's BEACH DAY!!

SKU: 05BQ21AC

Medium: Acrylic

Size: 6x6 Stretched Canvas

Price: $SOLD

Edition Year: 2021

Commissioned? No

What Brought About this Painting?

Doesn't everyone dream of a day, a week, a month at the beach - nothing but you (MAYBE the family), the ocean, the sun (wearing sunscreen of course), with sand between the toes and a nice breeze in your hair? A nice beverage, some snacks, no phone, no zoom, no boss, not a trouble in all the world?

This is what this painting is about. Enjoying a nice day with all that, relaxing and not worried about a clock, a deadline, a "MOMMIEEEEEE!" or a "DADDYYYYYY!". Life is good for ME!

Post 95: A Painting in Progress: Something Tropical

Painting in Progress: Something Tropical

I wasn't sure where this painting was going to go until I got further into it. All I knew is that I wanted something tropical. It developed into something I consider rather fun.

SKU: 03BB21AC

Medium: Acrylic

Size: 12x12 Stretched Canvas

Price: $Pending

Edition Year: 2021

Painting in Progress Images…

I will be looking for a name for this Painting, what would you call it? Leave your comments!

My idea is a semi underwater shot with perhaps some fish and a guess what? A sea turtle! And then the waves going on shore to "my get away island". A proper name will be needed. For now its just "Something Tropical". Naming credit will be given on the final painting if something suitable comes in.

Almost there.... very close to finishing this one. Palm Sunday, March 28, 2021 10 am

Still needs a name better than "Something Tropical". Maybe, "My Island Get Away"...

Post 57: Sun, Sand, Surf Seashore 16x20 Acrylic

Painting Name: Sun, Sand, Surf Seashore

SKU: 01R21AC

Medium:  Acrylic

Size:  16x20 Stretched Canvas

Price: $370.00 + Shipping

Framed?: Yes, a simple black floating frame

Edition Year: 2021

Commissioned? No

Etsy Shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/DonnaLiguriaArt

About this Painting…

I debated for awhile...paused in painting...I thunk and I thunk and I thunk. 

Should I put in a boat?

A sailboat?

A ship?

A beachball?

An umbrella?

A beach chair?

A bird?

Anything else?

Final decision, no. 

Leave the scene to your imagination.

Much like staging a house with only the essentials so that you can imagine what the room is used for and how you will live in the house, I leave the painting to you to imagine yourself HERE.

So what do you think?

I think the point IS that sometimes a painting is a "Vacation on a Wall". You wish you were there or a reminder of a time when you were in a similar place.

Maybe sometime soon I will add in one or two of the other touches, but I rather like "cutting the clutter". 

If only I could do so around the house...

About this Painting…

Has anyone in Virginia of adult age, NOT been to Virginia Beach?

It is still a destination upon graduation for some, a weekend for others, and home for some lucky persons like some cousins I have. 

It was my first look at the ocean many years ago - it does make you think about the world - looking out as far as you can see...

What was your first ocean experience and where?

Post 13: Cape Lookout NC Lighthouse 12 x 24

Painting Name: Cape Lookout Lighthouse in North Carolina 

SKU: 10K20AC
Medium: Acrylic

Size:12 x 24 Stretched Canvas
Price: $275.00 + shipping

Edition Year: 2020

Etsy Shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/DonnaLiguriaArt

A lighthouse painting of Cape Lookout in North Carolina. Very distinctive black and white diamond pattern and a great sky background in this acrylic painting.

Doesn't every artist have to have a lighthouse in their inventory? What could be better than a really cool lighthouse? - It can have everything really interesting: great colors, great architecture, great sky, water, and a variety of sand, grasses, rocks, cliffs etc. Moody lighthouses...

Cape Lookout in North Carolina is one such. The painting is 12 by 24 acrylic on canvas - fun to paint! I need to do another one. 

I have a dear friend that will be moving there when her family retires, so I hope to have the opportunity to paint a lot more of the area there - and the ponies!!

Beach painting with sand dunes, grass, waves coming in and a big blue sky.

 She may find some seashells here. She would definitely catch a tan anyway.

I rather like painting seaside, beach pictures, they talk to me. Especially during lockdowns, lock outs, and cold, windy days.
