I had fun with this one! I purchased a few of these long deep sided canvases, I thought they would be fun to play around with, and might make excellent gifts, since they don't need a frame.
I had a fantastic day at the craft fair here in Carpinteria yesterday :) I kind of wish I could have hired someone to sit at my table for me, I just always feel a little awkward selling my paintings....maybe because it's something so personal (at least to me). Or because I don't want people to feel like they have to say something nice just because I'm sitting there. But all in all a great day :)
Sometimes I like to play with paint...this is one of those times. I wanted to see what would happen if I painted this landscape as flat as possible. I really loved how the flat color turned out in the umbrella of this piece, so I decided to paint this little scene keeping the umbrella in mind.
