I thought I was done with this painting. It was a blog challenge to do this live and quick. I let this painting sit for over two weeks and went back to it I knew that I needed more detail work. This is often the case with painting. I have signed this image but to the left of her I am thinking I might place a flower lei.
I did spend another 30 minutes putting in wet sand and adding highlights to her skin, hair, head lei, and brightening up the hula skirt. I worked on the whales spouting adding more highlight to the mist. This picture was taken indoors under bright lights and no flash.
