"Restless Sea" oil on canvas

Just love to watch the waves roll in, the sound & smell all add to the pleasure, then try to capture it on canvas.

"Surfs on" oil on canvas

This was a perfect day for the "Surfers" & an even better day for those of us who love to paint the ever restless ocean, I just love the fury of crashing waves.

"Not so brave" oil on canvas

In Western Queensland we came upon these half grown cattle having a drink at the billabong & they ran away in fright when they seen me setting up to paint them, thankfully I had my camera ready to capture the moment.

"Surfs Up" oil on canvas

I love painting the many moods of the ocean, on this day the waves were huge.

What paintings, which medium, how many to include, just too much to decide in this terrible 40 plus heat, records have been broken, hottest summer ever.
