Jamaica

Very pretty and I'm sure she will love it!

It is like the palm in the middle is the queen of carnival ( in Brazil) and she is dancing.

Thanks Sandy!

Thanks Sunny. And I love that analogy :-)

Very nice and striking colors, as always!

WOW!!!! That's gorgeous Matt! Did you use gesso at all? How did you make the palm tree branches/leaves?

Thanks Jos!

Thanks Nancy. I did not use any gesso on this one. For the palm trees leaves I used the fan brush then went back with the script liner brush and kind of gave them a little more detail

That's one amazing tropical seascape right there! I also want to point out the ocean color, especially on the left side. Really really nice

Great work Matt, very colorful.

Beautiful scene, love all of the palms! The most I’ve seen on one canvas. The sand looks amazing. Super!

Thanks Marc. The boat was not in the original photo but I thought that added to the left side as well

Thanks Tom.

Thanks so much Brian. She gave me a few photos to pick from but I liked this one because of all the palms.

Are you allowed and would you be willing to share the photo Matt? I'd be really interested in how you translated it to the canvas

Sure thing Marc. I’ll post it.
