Man it's been a long time!

I've still been working, I've got piles of photos from class this past semester. I've done so much charcoal, I'm constantly smelling smoke everywhere I go. It's getting very old. I finally got to deliver a wonderful gift I was able to give, so I can post it now. I received a "commission" for a Cape Cod beach painting from a dear friend. I really love this painting so I'm very glad I was able to give it away!

Enjoy!

PS. I'm including all my step by steps as well.
