As the cold winds began to blow a mile back from the ocean last week, I found my thoughts turning to warm summer evenings, and when I next picked up my brushes it was with a vision of what would become "Summer's Eve" in mind.
I loosely sketched in my vision with a thin oil wash, then started bringing this warm summer memory alive. There's something magical about summer evenings on the shore and perhaps even more so when there's a full moon.
There's a hush in the salty air. The sand is warm and wet between your toes, though the water can be bracingly cool even in the summer. The cries of gulls have quieted. It's the moon, me and the lapping sea.
Moonlight refracted through the moist air often creates prisms of faint colors surrounding the moon, lending an air of mystery. Magic.
I hope you enjoy this little window into a beautiful summer evening at the beach and that it brings back warm summer memories for you.
"Summer's Eve" is painting no. 8 in my Celebration Series of 25 small paintings commemorating my studio & gallery's 25th anniversary. It is a 6" x 6" x 5/8" gallery wrapped oil on canvas painted using a glazing method used for centuries to produce subtle color changes and luminescence.
This painting is available as of this writing here online via the dropdown menu below, in my studio and via phone at (302) 539-3405.
The Celebration paintings are the smallest I've ever done and are strictly limited. All are signed on the painting's front and signed, titled and numbered with the words Ellen Rice Studio & Gallery Celebration Series on the back of the painting's stretcher bars or panels.
They can be picked up in my studio, held for you or shipped via fully insured FedEx.
Please note: these digital images only approximate the colors of the actual painting. The colors and natural glow of original paintings are best appreciated in person. You can see from the different images how different light and angles change colors. I think the first one on the whitish background is closer, but it's somewhere in between.
