Glitter

Glitter, 8 by 10 inches, oil
All that glitters is certainly not gold, I got to enjoy the glittering water in one of the beaches of Oman.The sun was bright even in the early morning and by noon every particle of water had literally turned in to diamonds!
"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost, the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost"
J.R.R.Tolkein

    Gorgeous turquoise colors, Padmaja. I most like looking at how you rendered the land forms of rock. It literally looks like you have carved them! Excellent!

    Beautiful thoughts and a beautiful painting. You are very lucky, nature seems to give its best sight for you to witness and later on remains fresh in your mind to even paint it.
