Shawna in Tangerine Sky

Last Summer I took a photo of Shawna sitting on the shore of Lake Superior at sunset. The sky and water were ablaze with colors of Tangerine and red.  I decided to use the photo for inspiration in the "Color of the Year Challenge" on Daily Paintworks. Kathy Weber challenged fellow artists to do a painting based around the Pantone color "Tangerine Tango." Thank you Kathy for this great challenge!

    What a beautiful portrait, Carol. Nothing beats or touches your heart as much as that adoring look in your dog's eyes!

    Carol this is absolutely beautiful! Hope you are tempted to do a larger piece! You captured Shawna's devotion and the colors sing!
