The Beach Below...

[Ern007]

A beach shown from above - After weeks/months of dark gloomy weather, I found the light to bright to get the best picture. I did this one today and a change from dark canvas.

Nice and sunny Ern and good to see after all the rain. Xxx❤️

[Ern007 in reply to sassy59]

Thanks Carole - It's been shocking, and depressing, at least we have a week of dry weather. Xxx

loving that blue sky ☀️

[Ern007 in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Thank you HH - SKY colour, It was ultramarine blended in with cobalt blue. Not done many of these for a while, was inspited by the rare sunny weather.. To be sunny all week.

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to Ern007]

I hope so! The forecast is talking of rain starting this afternoon and continuing until Saturday here. Hoping you get sunshine to inspire your paintings.

[Ern007 in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Just checked BBC for Lancashire, 17 deg for today. bit of rain at midnight. The clear until Saturday. I hope they are correct- Sun can inspire , landscapes with a cottage ect.

Hope you don't get rain HH. -

[Ern007 in reply to bikergrove]

Thank you bikergrove - I agree would be would be good to be on a warm beach.

[B0xermad]

Hi Ern it's very calming and I can almost hear the waves lapping on the shoreline

[Ern007 in reply to B0xermad]

Thank you B0xermad - I always holiday at seaside, . I like the sound of the sea.

[B0xermad in reply to Ern007]

I have the beach on my doorstep and feel so lucky to have relocated here 2003

[Ern007 in reply to B0xermad]

Must be really nice. I live just a few miles to Southport, and about 30 to the larger resort. You made the right decision B0xermad. We moved from town to village. 6 years ago, best move we made.

[Patk1 in reply to Ern007]

[Ern007 in reply to Patk1]

[Bingo88]

Good painting Ern007. Looks more like the weather we like until it gets too warm. Hope your keeping as well as possible. Brian

[Ern007 in reply to Bingo88]

Thank you Brian - Yea can get hot these days , I am not to bad, up and down at times, but with summer coming, always better.

Thank you Souielouie

[Greenthorn]

I love how you have painted the wispy clouds.There are so many things to enjoy in this picture. You have a way with shapes and curves! There's a lovely balance here.

[Ern007 in reply to Greenthorn]

Thank you Greenhorn. To be honest I enjoyed the couds, at times I don't do any. Likes the larger canvas also for a change.

[katieoxo60]

Just put your hat on ready for the coming sun Ern007, I was thinking of times gone by lounging on the beach or in the garden with cocktails thank you for sharing x

[Ern007 in reply to katieoxo60]

Times gone by at the beach but still. we have summer to come and the garden sounds good.x

[katieoxo60 in reply to Ern007]

Yes its a lovely day today, I can hear birds singing in the trees with the windows open and having to water pots due to no rain now. We got the bistro table & chairs out at the weekend. Sit back and relax and maybe a new painting will come to your mind to dox

[Ern007 in reply to katieoxo60]

What lovely thoughts - Watering pots. I do with a long flexi hose. They are so good in summer.

[katieoxo60 in reply to Ern007]

Think I might have to buy a hose again watering can is so heavy when full and its a light weight small one. Enjoy this sun might be gone by next week. Have my inhaler ln my pocket for when I go out. Another blood test at dinner time today at GPs then 7.30 am call at the hospital for biopsy hope it does not get called off again .

[Ern007 in reply to katieoxo60]

I used to use a large watering can but not, anymore -- Anne said I was stupid and was right. I have a flexy hose and a small can for hard places. Good luck with your test and hope you get your biopsies, no fun when cancelled, I found that out.

[watergazer]

Thank you Nula2 - Welcome I like to share. xxx

[Handel]

Wow Ern. Those waves along the shore line look like you could gather the foam up in your hands. Such a stunning scene. Thanks for brightening up my day yet again.

Love and hugs. Jan xxxx

[Ern007]

Thank you Jan - I liked painting where the sea meets that sand, gentle lap or foam and foam it was.

Lots of Lancashire hugs to you, on a warm was sunny day xxx

Thank you Mavary - If only.

[slram]

Love everything you did here!

[Ern007 in reply to slram]

Thank you Sharon - I though a change, on a larger canvas,

[Alberta56]

Love the sweet little clouds, which are never going to turn into nasty, rainy ones. And the palm tree offering a little shade to the flowers growing under it. xxx

[Ern007]

Thank you Chris. What a nice imagination you have, clouds with no rain really is ideal -) xxx
