Comment from Denise B
It has been awhile since I have worked with pastel. I am always a fan of anyone who can do it well. You have certainly done that in this one. I love the beach! The softness of the colors and blending in the correct areas is perfect. Well done.

This is a true day dream waiting to happen. I could just jump right in and sleep on that beach.
I love the fact that it is in subtle colors.
Very nice piece. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Joshua Chevalier
This Drawing I feel is a great depiction of walking up to a beach with relaxation in mind. What a wonderful capture of a moment. Is this something you experienced first hand?

Yes it is. The beaches in Destin, Florida are just beautiful with white sand and sea oats. Thank you for your fine review and rating.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
A potential submission with fantabulous overall impact!

Subtle pastel colors with pinkish overtone.

Fine features & smooth textures.
Great compositional style.

Diminishing perspective.
Vanishing viewpoint.

Harmonious colors.
Thanks for sharing...
Good luck!

A lovely piece of scenery very soft and well executed the only thing I would have liked to see it with a bit more colour the foreground could have been a bit darker to give distance but still very good

It bothered me too so I let it sit for a few days and redid it. I have posted the modified version and would love to hear your impressions of my changes. Thanks.

Very beautiful beach scene you have created. The soft pink sky adds to the pleasing composition. The two birds are flying about and enjoying this lovely day you have created. The overall impact of this is very soft and pleasing to the viewer. Nice work, Linda. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Envision
The pink and lavender colors you have used in the sky are lovely and blended together well. I like the hint of yellow too and the extra depth that creates. The foreground landscape is filled with nice textures.
