Setting Sail Ocean Painting by Mandy Gatlin

'Setting Sail' Ocean Painting by Mandy Gatlin
Acrylic on Canvas



This painting of the ocean had been nagging at me for quite some time. 
I still have strong urges to paint the ocean, waves, sunsets, and sunrises. 
Much of my life was filled with visits to the beach, and I got to spend a lot of time on boats.
My body always feels so relaxed at the beach, and there's nothing better than
watching the sun slowly slip away past the horizon.
I love the colors in this ocean painting. The blues and greens
with the oranges and yellows of the sky make for a serene scene.
You can watch the video of me painting 'Setting Sail.' Notice how the sky changed as
I played with many different possibilities with the clouds and finally felt happiest
with the rusty oranges and yellows. 
What is your favorite part about the beach?
