Six..this is lovely. The colors are soft and I really like the blue green of the water as well as the touches of green on the rock formations. The paths on the rocks are a nice addition. Very good rendention.

Very nice painting. You have managed to capture the quiet moment on the beach very well. I like the softness of the painting it is almost like something done in pastels. The rocks in the background are very well done.

I love teh way you have left some of the canvas showing. It gives your oil a water color effect. I like the composition and you can almost feel the wind. this is very nice.

Beutiful colors once again. Co deep and rich color-palette for the water - admirable! Your Model looks like he prefer the loneliness at the moment...

Thank you for your comments. Yes, my son was just thinking!
Comment from RobRich
I think this is a lovely portrait of someone who doesn't like having his photo taken (or painted, I assume). Sometimes back views tell more about a person than a staged portrait. He seems very comfortable with nature and relaxed in his reverie. Nicely done!
