Norma Wilson Seascape Beach Coastal Living Waves Ocean Painting Ar



"Catch A Wave"

©Norma Wilson, original oil, 6" by 6"

SOLD



We are so lucky here in Virginia Beach to have warm enough temperatures to enjoy the beach way past Labor Day. When I lived at the beach, I saw may surfers hitting the waves up into November wearing wet suits. They were pretty hard core. I personally love walking on the beach listening to the sounds of the waves crashing on the shore. So peaceful. Happy Friday!

Sailing, Sailing.. Thirty Paintings In Thirty Days Day Seventeen by Norma Wilson


Sailing, Sailing

© Norma Wilson, original oil on panel 5" by 7

150.


This piece was done from my imagination.  I love to watch sailboats off the coast.  It seems so
romantic and fun but in reality....my inner ear does not cooperate and when they go sideways, my
heart jumps out of my chest.  Perhaps with more practice and a patch, I could overcome it but for now, I can watch and paint, and dream!   :-)

Available Through Gallery


I seem to want to prolong the summer feeling with these gulls at the beach! Our weather is helping to do the same today with the temperature nearing 70 and a beautiful breeze coming in the window.  Others must be feeling the same as these birds have been finding new homes very quickly. Thank you to my new collectors!  I appreciate you stopping by and for leaving me your comments too!

Often, I am drawn to dramatic light contrasts and loved this gull's proud looking
stance.  I am pleased with painting and the soft colors seen in the shadows.  Hope you are having a wonderful day!  So happy you stopped by.

Thirty Paintings In Thirty Days- Day Three!

Seaside Memories
SOLD
6" by 6" original oil on panel

One of my favorite memories of my children growing up is watching them play at the beach!  I still love to walk along the beach in summer and see families relaxing and spending time together soaking all the sights and sounds and the wonderful sea breeze!  This little girls seemed to be expressing her glee with her hands outstretched while her brother is busy at work. :-)  It was great fun to capture this in paint!  Have a wonderful weekend!

Thirty Paintings In Thirty Days! #14


Pelican

SOLD 

6" by 6" original oil 





Pelicans, deliberations finished,
Glide on my wings.
It's time to say: Until we meet again
To the palmtree shore.

What we saw - we saw,
What we heard - we heard - enough!
Twilight glides on pelican wings,
The sun sinks into the sea.

With my mind turning towards warmer temperatures, I decided to paint a beautiful conch shell with my student's.  This was the painting I shared with the class.  I have been enjoying my classes in both oil and acrylic and love to see artists paint and share the joy of painting with one another.   Hope you have a great day.  Thanks so much for checking in with me!
