Chapel by the Sea



On a trip to Canada this summer, my niece, Holly, took an awesome photograph of this little church.  This is an extremely cropped view of her original photo, but I thought it would make a good study for a larger painting.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Wonderful light in the distance, and I agree with Azra there is an air of mistery about the painting !
