Mapua Waters 2
16″ x 12″ Mapua Waters 2
Water flowing over rocks is fascinating to watch. I repainted my Mapua Waters to put the focus more on the flowing water and less on the rocks beneath. Below is the first painting.

Watery Slice 2
16″ x 12″ Watery Slice 2
Moving water is often confusing with the reflections, distortions and transparencies. I reworked this to simplify the wave’s motion to make a more interesting composition. Below is what it looked like when first painted November, 2018.

The late afternoon sunlight lit up the waves as they passed by Bandon’s Wizard’s Hat and its big companion rock. I love catching the ocean swells before they break and turn to froth.
Watery Pastels 2
Watery Pastels 2, 20″ x 16″
This view is from the cliffs at Coquille Point in Bandon, Oregon, looking down at the beach rocks as the tide comes in to submerge them. The elevated view flattens the waves somewhat and paints the ocean in pastel colors reflected from the layers of mist and clouds.
This encaustic was originally painted in March of 2018. I recently reworked it and took a better photo of it. Below is the previous version.
