On many mornings I have seen this beautiful colored sky over the quiet ocean. The sand lies without footprints from the high tide over night as the water wipes away any evidence of people on the beach during the night.

On this occasion I saw some very small sand crabs which could not be seen at this distance. And after this painting was added to this web site, I went in and indicated a few very small shore birds in a small patch of blue water just at the water's edge, At various times, these birds are seen there and I felt this painting should include them.

I enjoy walking the beach when it is so peaceful. I hope you feel the quiet and peace that I do.

The original is framed in a 2" light pastel gold frame which highlights the colors in the painting perfectly. Thank you for visiting my website. I hope you will come again often.
