Shell Game

5.5 x 7.5 watercolor on 140 lb Arches cold press paper, AJ paints, done today in about 45 minutes. Some negative painting, splattering, and minimal glazing can be seen here. Shells are imaginary. I tried to emulate water softly ebbing and flowing over the tiny stones, beach debris, and shells partially submerged.
THIS PAINTING IS SOLD.
