What would a trip to warm weather be without the proverbial beach view? Every day the umbrellas would be claimed by sunbathers and their ocean-loving kiddles. With all the sand and wind, it was a little difficult to paint with watercolors, but I did sneak in this quick landscape sketch one afternoon.

We just returned yesterday from a week in the sun. It was wonderful and gave me a whole new outlook on life after dealing with this long, crummy Michigan winter. I brought both my watercolors and pastels down but really concentrated on watercolor landscape sketches. This little outdoor cafe was near our condo and caught my eye every morning. I loved the pattern the umbrellas made against the bright bushes in the background.
