Holy cow!  This is one of my favorites!  I'm assuming this was a plein air study.  If so, I can't wait to see studio piece.  The depth and harmony are fantastic!  And, I love the tones in the sand -- a nice blend of warm and cool contrasts, but not too heavily weighted on either side.  Plus, the coordination of the yellows to greens then into blues and pockets of magenta work so well.

Beautiful Painting Richard! To me it seams as though you have the ability to capture a scene with a limited amount of brush strokes. I think this is your greatest strength. Every brush stroke seams well intended and full of meaning.
