I had planned to paint outside today, but the weather forecast was for rain.  Being a wussy when it comes to braving the elements, I decided to paint a landscape from one of my photos. 
The Artist's United Convention at Surf Side Beach, SC is in a couple of weeks and since I intend to do some plein air painting while there, this was a good exercise.
I probably will add a figure on the beach or a sea gull in the air when the painting dries.
