I did it! Here is my 30th painting, sweet “Maggie”. Maggie has been a student of mine for several years, and in that time I have seen her grow from a little girl to a sweet young lady.
I started this painting sometime ago when I was taking a workshop from artist, Jodi Ohl. Jodi mixes a variety of mediums that help capture ethereal qualities. Sensitive, delicate, angelic, fairy-like, and lightness is what I was trying to portray with Maggie’s portrait.

“Seaside’s Glory”
6×8 oil on pintura panel
A favorite pastime at the beach this week is watching the flag wave back and forth. One time it looked like it was knotted up, but somehow unfurled it’s red, white and blue and started whipping around in the wind. Beautiful.
“Seaside’s Glory” is my 22nd piece for the 30 in 30 challenge.
