Daily Painting, "Waves", Seascape, 6x8", Oil, SOLD



I enjoy trying to capture the feel of the surf rushing to shore on my canvas.



The ocean seems to have a different character and color each time I visit.  This is the east coast of Florida, while California is much more rugged and has a deep rich blue hue.


I like to use my daily paintings very informally in my home.  Just prop them up where ever the mood strikes! No frame necessary!

SUNRISE REFLECTING ON THE SURF, SOLD 6x8, OIL DAILY PAINTING


I have not done a daily painting seascape for quite some time, so I ventured down to the beach just in time to see the sun come up.  It is beautiful to see the sunrise no matter where you are...but it is down right stunning when you are sitting on the beach.


I hope your day is as inspirational as mine was!

THE SEA, 5X7, ABSTRACT, OIL, CA SCHIFF, SOLD


I have not done any seascapes for quite some time now, so when the urge hit me, I painted this one out of my head. I really want to take another photo shoot at the beach, just have to find the time to get there.

ANOTHER SEASCAPE, OIL, 5X7

I really enjoy doing these small seascapes. Fortunately, with the Atlantic nearby, I have a never ending source of new compositions. This one, I call impressionistic, bordering on abstract. What fun!

OCEAN SUNRISE, 6X8, OIL


Some days it is really hard to find something to paint.  It is always fast or famine with me and today was a famine day.  I decided to do a little seascape as I have not painted one for months.  In fact, I painted two of them today, so tomorrow I will post the second piece.

Here Comes the Sun, Sunrise Oil Painting of Florida's Atlantic Coast by Judy Batterson, Florida Artist

The brilliance of an ocean sunrise is exciting and challenging to capture on canvas. When the sun filled the sky with breathtaking colors, the water reflected the light. Even the sand glowed. I saw the entire spectrum of colors before me. Awe inspiring! Featured in the Art for All Spaces "I Believe" show at CityArts Factory 2014 in downtown Orlando. Also featured in the Casselberry Art House 2013. 24 x 18 original oil on canvas, $600.

I Believe in Discovery, A Florida Coastal Landscape with Palm, Dunes, and Ocean by Judy Batterson, Florida Artist

This paintings is a compilation of what Ponce de Leon saw when he first discovered the peninsula of Florida 500 years ago. This is also part II of a complete diptych tying the sailing explorers together with the land they discovered. Bold in color, it emphasizes the boldness of Ponce and his men. I hope this encourages others to keep Florida's natural beauty the way they found it long ago. 18x24 oil on board.

Mr. Pelican, Beach Art by Judy Batterson


Why, hello there, Mr. Pelican! Pelicans, especially brown pelicans, are always part of Florida's coastal environment. They fly in groups low over the water. When resting, a pelican will pull his head down. I can recall a poem that my dad taught me at a very young age: "There once was a bird called a pelican, Whose beak could hold more than his belly can, He can hold in his beak, Enough food for a week, But I don't know how in the 'heck' he can." 5 x 7" original oil $75

Eco Trip, a Florida Beach Painting of Kayaks on Sand by Judy Batterson


When I discovered the colorful kayaks pulled up on the sand of an island on the Intracoastal Waterway, I loved the scene! I took lots of photos because I was in a boat viewing it, and then I painted the scene in the studio. The intriguing part of this was that it was so still, hot and calm that day, and there were no clues to the whereabouts of the people. I found out later that the Marine Discovery Center in Volusia County had sent volunteers out to search for turtle nests. Although I have posted this painting before, I am reposting it because it has been chosen for the Biennial VI Exhibit at the Museum of Florida Art in DeLand, FL. Exhibit runs from Nov. 11 to March 4, 2012.

Sandpiper Tracks, Beach Sand Dune Ocean Oil Painting by Judy Batterson


A view of the ocean through the dunes showcased the sun lighting up the sky with vivid colors. What caught my eye were the tiny little birdie tracks in the sand. Sandpipers had scurried to the water's edge through the sand. It took many tries to get those little tracks just right, but I think they made the painting more interesting. The detail in this painting shows that the dunes are more than just sand. They can be fascinating and always changing with vegetation and the wind. Original 8 x 10 oil on masonite. (Sold)

It is still a working lighthouse and a landmark in this area. 4 x 4" oil on canvas with easel $55

Lost, Oil Beach Landscape Painting by Judy Batterson


Small red boat beached on yellow sand under storm clouds is the setting for "The world is so big and my boat is so small." The boat is so small and lost next to the vastness of the ocean and sky. The storm clouds add to the drama. We have all had times when we feel overwhelmed like this. But we have to experience storms in order to appreciate the sunshine. Using complimentary colors of yellow and violet helps to intensify the scene. Original Oil on masonite.16 x 20" (Giclee available $325)
