"This red, white, and blue spiked spinsock is 'making a patriotic point."

Artist comment: "My favorite color combination is red, white, and blue (I was born just after the 4th of July), so I get excited when I see any kind of representation thereof. This delightful spinsock was obsered at the beach on a beautiful late summer day. I couldn't resist photographing it and painting it with pastel on Canson Mi-Teintes textured paper. Beginning with the sky, I chose a purple-blue so to not conflict with the colors in the kite. After doing the entire background, I carefully started with first the white, then the blue, leaving the red (and the spikes) for the last. I'm pleased with the outcome of one of my favorite pastel paintings."

Very pretty painting, and so very realistic looking- at first glance I thought that I was viewing an actual photograph. :)
