Winter Dunes at Talbot
Pastel on sanded board; 14x11
Available, click here
This painting is a view of the dunes back from the beach at Talbot Island State Park. Oddly enough, these dunes are on the other side of A1A, and I did the drawing and reference photos from the shoulder of the highway - standing in a bumper crop of sand spurs.
In this piece, I have punched the values and colors in order to add interest and drama. I limited the detail in the foreground so that I could emphasize the dune ridge.
