Jan 4 Painting a Day Ocean Sea Acrylic Landscape Painting $39.50 No Reserve Toni Grote

This entry is for an original 5x7 painting of a beach scene. The process behind this painting is unique. I always apply a coat of
texture...sometimes I make it smooth, sometimes I leave uneven. After I drew a line (the shoreline) I knew this had to be an
ocean scene. Once I got the land and sea painted I noticed the texture left an indentation which was a perfect size, shape and scale to put a person! That will never happen again, even if I tried. I added another little body and it turned out to look like a child playing in the sand, thus the name of the painting. Thank you and take care!

SOLD

Jan 3 Painting a Day Abstract Trees Landscape Original Acrylic Painting $39.50 No Reserve!

This listing is for a beautiful painting of a couple of trees in an
abstracted landscape 6"x6". I really love the way this painting turned
out. (I have been painting more trees so watch for my future
listings).

I am a very spiritual person and can't help putting
that element into my art. I usually don't mention anything about it but this time I scratched the word "Faith" down at the bottom. It is not real obvious but it is there. (see the closeup pic in my ebay auction, click the link below)

I guess this time of year we make new resolutions and plans to better our lives. I count on faith alot. If there is interest in these kinds of paintings I would be happy to do more such as Hope, Love, Kindness, etc...all the words that make the world go 'round.

This painting has lots of texture, interest and loads of color!SOLD
