I finished this painting when I was 13.
I chose to do this painting because it reminded me of home, where I have been living for the last 8 years, on the coast. Before I started on it, I hadn't realized that painting the ocean would be so difficult but in the end it was worth the difficulty. My favorite part of doing this painting was the beach floor. There was a lot of blending and different shades of colors.
If I was to re-do something on this painting, it would be the hair because 2 years ago I didn't have the still somewhat slim knowledge that I have today. And today I have my own special way of painting hair that I wish I had then, but that's the point of growing older and wiser, you gain knowledge and skill towards things that you may or may not of known how to do once.
I gave it to my grandparents because the woman in the painting resembled my grandmother, and she is a very beautiful and truly amazing person.
