Day two hundred and fifty-six: As I suspected, picking a concrete subject to paint with watercolor rather than scratching it out from my imagination certainly made today’s sketch more relaxing. I don’t know that it’s fundamentally any better than the landscape study I painted yesterday, but I like it despite its tourist picture qualities. This is a view looking out at the Pacific from my favorite beach on Earth, just South of the Corcovado National Park and a bit North of Carate Costa Rica. Imagine yourself in a hammock with scarlet macaws flying overhead, and no people in sight. Crashing waves, tide coming in… you get the idea: entirely delightful.
