Having few opportunities to buckle down in the studio these days
I’ve had some fun doing some quick simplified beach scenes. 
(It’s summer time!) 
“Socially Distant”
10 x 10 oil on carton board
I find the act of breaking every thing down into 
simple shapes of flat color is very therapeutic. 
Almost like a doing a “coloring book.” 
I’m guessing we all need a little of that right now. 
No? 
NOTE:
I’m getting ready to (hopefully) teach again in the fall,
and it’s been fun to re-visit my lesson plans. 
As always, I realize that “getting back to basics”
is both comforting and re-energizing
for all of us.
