I finally got myself over to Balboa Island today and painted boats for the very first time. I loved the views there and can't wait to go back again tomorrow. I know I will be spending quite some time there creating an entire series of Balboa paintings, from the boats to the Fun Zone, which I am anxious to do night paintings of. The photo to your left is the first stage of the initial block in, with the finished painting below. It's refreshing to paint more intricate detail and man made objects placed within beautiful scenery.
