I love this work – I am about to start a very large painting of mangroves but it won’t be as colourful and friendly as this. I’m into dark and brooding at the moment LOL.. Your work is fabulous.
Virginia McGowan
Oh Lyn I just logged in again!
Thanks I was trying to get different! get cranky at times, so more colour! although I did this a couple of years ago,and it just sits around with nobdoy seeing it.Not quite game enough to present it in comps. yeah funny!! dark and brooding. I do those when I am happy , more colour more cranky??
These are just next to the Caravan Park, right on the beach ,[the council park,] I got some good photo’s too but did this from pencil sketch ,everybody lines up at dusk along the waters edge because of the magnificient sunsets coming over the water, not many Western sunsets over water in Eastern Australia.

feel the texture on the mangroves. Brilliants colours, soft background. The top of tree’s a little of impressionism. Well done.

Virginia McGowan

BLYTHART
Very good. Can you really see the roots like this, or have you used artist’s licence?
Virginia McGowan
ooh no Dave this is how they are when the tide goes out. vicious as the roots poin upwards and not good to wade amongst.
I have a photo here somewhere too. I’ll look for it.
Betty Mackey
I’ve seen mangroves in Florida and you’ve captured the feeling of the plant but have given them delightful charm besides.
Virginia McGowan

Michael Barnes
This is glorious, although I’m not sure I want to get too close – don’t know if i’d ever get out of those roots! very nice piece
Virginia McGowan replied
thanks belatedly! Your’e correct about roots, nasty beasts they are vicious and thickly growning if in the tropics
Virginia McGowan
thanks for the comment mrbpaints, in a mangrove forest it would beand is very difficult to progreess far, very mucky, these are just in nice clean sand.
