On a recent visit to Cayucos I discovered how challenging it can be to paint at the beach. The first painting day was a disaster with my easel falling over and the tide coming in. The second day (this video) I discovered that the ocean does not hold still and you just have to invent the wave pattern that you want to portray. I can't admit to success but I definitely learned a bunch (and got a sunburn). #painting #oilpaintingdemonstration #cayucos #oceanpainting
