TREASURED MEMORIES by Elizabeth Blaylock

12 x 12 oil on wood panel

Beautiful little girl and boy on the glorious Gulf Shores, Alabama Beach, totally enjoying just splashing in the surf of the ocean. They have tossed cares to the wind!

I am sure that the parents are lovingly watching over them as our father in heaven watches over us.

They know it in their very being!

Luke 12: 6-7

6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. 7 Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

ADORABLE IN BLUE AT THE BEACH

9 X 12 OIL ON HARD BOARD CANVAS PANEL

This is a one hour demo I painted for my workshop a couple of weeks ago.

This figure was a lot darker than the background with a few touches of light hitting.

Keeping the edges soft lends more of an impression of movement. The figures in the background

were painting with just a couple of stokes capturing the gesture..

JUMPING FOR JOY! OIL PAINTING COMMISSION

11 X 14 OIL ON STRETCHED CANVAS SOLD

I really like the gesture of these children jumping into the water. This painting is an oil portrait commission, that will bring years of pleasant memories to mind.

While painting this, I paid attention to the negative space to relate the proportions of the figures to each other.

LITTLE GIRL WITH A BIG FLOPPY HAT

10 X 8 OIL ON STRETCHED CANVAS SOLD

I used more grays, warm against cool in this figurative beach study. The use of more muted color is quiet a contrast to the previous painting, where I painted with more intense color.

DARK SKINNED LITTLE BEAUTY AT THE BEACH

10 X 8 OIL ON STRETCHED CANVAS

This cute little girl was enjoying a beautiful September day at the beach. I am enjoying the slightly cooler weather here on the Alabama Gulf Coast, too.

I used a loaded brush and a palette knife to apply the oils thickly on this figurative painting..

If you have good photos of your kids involved in their play, I can be commissioned to do a casual impressionistic portrait painting for you.

The 8 x 10s start at around $400.. Great gifts for Christmas if you hurry!

have here.
