En Plein Air Art At the Beach

Never mind that I don't know how to paint.  Can't even begin to imagine how to pick up a paint brush, this would still be a dream day of mine.  Beside the sea; breathing in the salt air, feeling the wind on my face, being soothed by the crash of the Pacific meeting the sand...  Might be just the perfect coastal outing for a late summer, early fall day.

Wanna come?  We could plan a picnic? Fill our basket with hot chocolate in the thermos, (I am not opposed to a bottle of red wine!) and some nice creamy brie cheese, and a fresh crunchy loaf of French bread. Maybe we could still find some late summer red-ripe juicy strawberries or delish peaches on our way to the coast?

That does it, I am now inspired! Learning how to oil paint is going on my bucket list.

  1. So happy to find your blog! I have a coastal blog, based on the Gulf Coast of Alabama. It covers the small town of Fairhope, located on Mobile Bay, and the entire Gulf Coast region!

    Your photos are beautiful. I'll be back often!
