An area of the coast of England near Durdle Door...
Done with oils on 30"x40" canvas, and referenced from a photo.
This is my 2nd large scale landscape oil painting project, and I am planning many more. I'm really enjoying working with oils, and I believe this one has more detail than the last ("Waterfall")
I really enjoyed painting the water - and the pebbles were quite a challenge.

Potato... Potot-to...
How ever you phrase it, I still saved only the image file and... why are we making such a big deal about it?
He liked it, as do I, from the stand point of an oil painting (and water & sand is a pain in the butt to paint - even I've never gotten it on canvas).

This piece was a commission, so it is already sold - but my Waterfall piece is for sale, and I'm going to be producing more non-commission environment paintings for sale as well. I love to have them on my walls, though - and I'll be a little sad when I let them go - but after a while I'll run out of wall space anyways ^.^
Every time I see a painting of yours, I'm completely blown away by the sheer amount and attention to detail and the realism. This is definitely not an exception. At first glance on thumbnail view, it looked like a photograph. There's so many rocks in that corner! The detail in the cliff and the water is just breathtaking and beautiful! I love the scenery as well. Though I've never seen this location before, I now want to from this painting. :D
I just hope I can get this good with oils or acrylics one day. :D

I'm just on my phone right now and it looks amazing! I'm at my parents house right now, so I whole be able to send you those photos I was talking about earlier (hopefully)! Otherwise I'll have to retake them when it stops raining...*looks at weather report* someday...someday it'll be good enough to hike back out there!
Kacey, you've honestly surpassed yourself with this one. I've loved the waterfall scenery very much, for both artistic and personal reasons (I simply love that style of gardens and waterfalls so much), but this one is just so plain awesome that I lack the words to express my amazement properly. I hope to see more of your great paintings around here. The way you made the spume look - I can nearly smell the salt in the air, feel the breeze on my skin and want to step backwards so that my feet don't get wet from the returning waves. I expect to hear the cry of a seagull at any moment...
Such pictures in combination with some clear piano play can really make one's day.
You're a great artist.

..that's just crazy....you caught the White Cliffs of Dover's beauty perfectly.
The pebbles on the beach are so well done, you can see they're not just quite circles you've scribbled, you've given them form, different shapes, and the way the water on the beach is drawing back into the ocean and rolling up into a little wave is so natural looking and true to water, as are the cliff faces and the fields above them. I'm dumbfounded by the amount of detail in this, the time and patience and attention to detail is that of which I have not seen from artists on this site in such a long time, that I feel happy being here xD Truly a remarkable piece here, and do hope you keep up the good work =]

Not white cliffs of Dover (which is in Kent) this picture is from the beach near Durdle Door in Dorset, which is a natural stone arch just behind the artist’s left shoulder from the artist’s viewpoint. Durdle Door and much of the Dorset coastline forms part of the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
