Finding New Inspiration

Just before the sun is down...
Man in a boat

Every day since I have moved, I walk my dog along the small beach near my house. It's a short walk and he loves the smells plus he always tries to catch a seagull, it's pretty funny to watch. Yesterday around 5pm we were at the beach and I was blown away by the colors in the sky. I have painted sunsets in the past but ever since I have moved I feel like I have a new awareness of the inspiration that surrounds me on a daily basis. I am about to start a new watercolor and I am thinking of using one of these photos because of the colors in the sky and the way they reflect on the water. Nature is so amazing to me.
