Not every painting is a "success" in my point of view. This watercolor was a quick sketch done en plein air on a beach in Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands (http://www.b-v-i.com/JostVanDyke/). I was there for a daytrip with cients, and I broke away for a few moments by myself. I am not sure if it is the cursory speed at which I painted, my unfamiliarity with the terrain, or the challenges of painting water, but I don't count this piece among my favorites. Nonetheless, it reminds me of a beautiful day spent on a pristine beach.
