How else could I celebrate my newly-awarded signature member status at #pastelsocietyofamerica as to paint? Yesterday was a beautiful day so I headed out to the sea but I needed some challenge I’d painted quite a lot of sea en plein air but never wave closeups. To be honest, it IS overwhelming and my first thought was how on earth I was going to do it! Waves come and go every few seconds and they all are very different especially if you paint on a rocky shore like I did. However, if you watch them long enough, you’d notice that there are repetitions. Having chosen the type of a wave you want to paint, you just need to be patient. It may take you quite a few waves before the one you’re painting will appear again. It will require the highest concentration from you, too, to memorize this wave at the stage you’ve chosen to paint which lasts only a fraction of a second. I am very happy with my first attempt and think I’m hooked now and there will be more plein air wave closeups coming! These two minis (15x15cm) - ‘Wave fragmentations I and II’ (please swipe) - are now available unframed just in time for Mother’s Day at 75€ each plus p&p (10€ worldwide, registered mail). Professionally framed option with non-reflective TruView glass like in the photo #3 is also possible (contact me for details please). If interested in purchasing, please email me at elena@elenadegenhardt.com
PS I was so engaged in painting that didn’t notice a ferry going to Sicily. This usually causes huge waves to appear around 10 minutes after the ferry has passed by. Thankfully, a gentleman warned me so I moved away further inland that saved my pastels, artwork and possibly myself from being washed into the sea ... or well, at least, from getting pretty much soaked! .

Did I warn you there’d be more plein air wave closeups coming? ‘Wave fragmentation III’, 17,5x18,5cm, soft pastels. Please swipe to watch a video of the sea on the day. I felt sea spray on my face all the time and had to quickly grasp my pastels and jump back to avoid a soak once. The wind kept tearing the paper off the board. Still having a knee pain - no more kneeling on the rocks! Not an easy plein air all in all, the more I love this little fury! It’s available unframed direct from me (dm if interested please) or on my Etsy: www.etsy.com/shop/CardsandPrintsShop

It’s such a fantastic feeling when someone looks at your paintings and you see their eyes sparkle! These four mini ‘Wave fragmentations’ - two plein air (top) and two studio pieces (nightmare to photograph!) have gone to a new lovely collector today - I am very grateful! .

It always makes me happy to receive photos of my paintings from their new homes - framed and up on the wall. This is one of the four miniature ‘Wave fragmentations’ that all went with the same collector in Malta - looking beautiful in its new dress! .
