A Very Warm Painting

Hi
 I know I'm not a daily blogger so please forgive me for this.  At the moment I am taking an on line Oil Class for still lifes but also going to an Oil Painting Class every Wednesday.  Last Wednesday we started working in palette knife only which is rather new to me.  I've used palette knives before but with brushes.  I was trying for harmony in this painting so I only used warm colors to achieve this. I hope you enjoy this picture and it gets you all in the mood for summer and the beach.   Thanks everyone for coming in here and viewing.   If you like to leave a comment, please do, I enjoy reading all of them.
