"Fresh Sea Oats"


Oil on canvas panel - 12x9

SOLD

In the early summer, the sea oats put on seed heads of vibrant, yellow-green. The dunes at Cape San Blas State Park are especially picturesque when they are festooned with the fresh crop of oats.

This painting is a small work that I have done to validate composition for a larger work.  I am satisfied that the design works well for this piece.
