In honor of the windy weather we have been having on Whidbey Island over the past several days, I thought I would post this little piece of the storm just outside my studio.  I love this kind of weather. Well, except for the power outages. That's a bit of a bother.

Waves from the island to all, 
and always, 
cheers,
Sandy

  1. Sandy, Your waves never disappoint. In fact, it was one of your wave paintings that drew me to your work in the first place almost 2 years ago. Keep these beauties coming.

  3. Sandy, it gives the sense of being there in your studio looking out and seeing this stormy weather and it's affect on the beach. A great atmospheric painting.

  11. Hi Sandy! It looks like my earlier comment didn't make it. I just wanted to say thanks for finding me so I could find you! Your paintings are inspiring. I hope to try my hand at pastels one day. I will be at the WIFAS for a class at the end of August. I hope I can see your work in person.
