Description

The inspiration for this painting started during a trip to the rocky coasts of California. After viewing the crashing waves at sunset I wanted to recapture that same feeling. This is the second painting in a series depicting the rich imaginations of children. At this age, life is a steady stream of discoveries. Anything seems possible, even meeting a magical creature during your next adventure.

Except for a pencil sketch of the mermaid, this piece was painted entirely in Photoshop. Comments are welcome.

Superb. The subject matter isn't my thing but there's no doubt you know your stuff! I don't have a single crit, and that's pretty rare. The colours are tremendous.

Edit: And I've just checked out your website. Your landscapes are great but that demo reel...! Damn.

This is absolutely beautiful!!! The details in the facial expression of the boy and the water are really very well done. You have really captured the wonder and amazement that comes in the mind of a child.
