Florida Vista, 8x6 Oil Landscape on Canvas by Carmen Beecher


I've been practicing painting clouds lately, and this started out as a beach scene with fluffy clouds; then Donna loaned me this photo that is just so Florida to me and I changed my painting completely. I love these grassy vistas dotted with a few palm trees. Florida is not just Daytona, Miami Beach and theme parks. A vast amount of Florida looks just like this.
