One Cancun Morning

8 by 6 inches, oil on gesso board
Vacation time by the sea was good, especially Cancun, Mexico offered a lot to paint.Took a lot of pictures to paint, acquired a new pochade box for future plein air paintings, some good palette knives and watched Netflix!
Coming back to the routine after a few days of weightlessness seems daunting. The responsibilities of life suddenly feel harder to tackle.I am still in the sleeping mode but will get in to the daily painting mode soon.This is from my trip to Cancun, woke up early one day just to catch the sunrise.

  4. I always love the beautiful colors and textures in your paintings. I can feel the heat of the Cancun day just starting with the sunrise.

    Are you home or still in CA? I always found it so hard to come back to real life after a vacation.

  8. I am still always amazed with your choices of color, Padmaja. The orangey-reds in this carry me to this peaceful place. I can remember the sound of the surf.

  10. There is nothing as beautiful as sunrise and sunset and you managed to capture the wonderful colors the ocean adds to the glory of it all. Great painting, Padmaja. I always love what you paint but this one gave me an extra tug of pleasure.
    Hope you enjoyed every day of your vacation.

  12. I love art generally and this painting and the one in the post below specifically! Beautiful! I am drawn to the vibrant colors...I have painted a bit myself but nothing on this level. These are stunning.
