Creative Tuesdays' theme is 'Paradise Island'. I had done this piece last year for another art co-op and thought it would be perfect for this theme. I had been inspired by a travel ad I saw in the newspaper. It's trading card sized and in water colour pencils as I had not yet started using acrylics. Wouldn't you just like to be there right now?

Ahhh...paradise. I love the way the ocean meets the sky on the horizon. Now I have the song "come sail away with me" stuck in my head : )
This is pretty cool. I've never worked with acrylics before, but really like the texture that I can see even being on the computer screen. Love the shadow, superbly done, and the sky/water is tranquil and peaceful, and sailboat, I wanted to do one for my painting, but had some trouble getting the sail right, so settled for a small raft/boat. Great job. Thanks
You should use watercolor pencils more often, Christine. This is lovely.
Beautiful! Wouldn't mind one bit to be there right now :)
Have a great day!

Yes, I certainly would like to be there right now. The sailboat is really cool looking and I'm inspired that you managed all that detail in such a small space.
