Blue-Green Oil Painting in Progress

I started a new painting in mid June, just after returning home from Cape Cod. While we were walking there on the beach on a sunny afternoon, I snagged a lounge chair,  put my feet up and closed my eyes. I experienced those patterns and images that happen when you tilt your head up to the light with your eyes closed. It was full of brilliant patterns of greens and blues and... 

became the inspiration and color for the current painting that I'm working on. The images above show the progress I made in a week, working within the limitations of my painting process, allowing drying time. I work on other paintings in between times. The images are just barely edited, and are photographed with my iphone. I'll show more progress next week. Thanks for stopping by!
