Day 4 of "30 Paintings in 30 Days"

North Shore, Oahu

Today on the 30 day painting challenge, I am taking you to the stunningly beautiful North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii, land of surfers, beach goers, photographers, painters, but mainly tourist!

Yes, it truly is this beautiful and more!  And the photograph from which I worked was taken on a horrible weather day when the water was rough and people were advised not to swim nor surf!  Can you imagine on a serene day? 

I long to go back!

Here is the original photograph from which I worked.

I actually played around with this photo on my computer before I painted it to try to see it blurry since I do not have the ability to squint.  (After a past eye surgery, I do not have that ability.  Wonderfully computers today can do fabulous tricks to compensate!)
