Frenzy



I'm working on rounding out my seascape offerings with some larger pieces. From one of many reference photos I shot while in Kill Devil Hills, NC, a town on the beautiful Outer Banks.

This is a homemade panel and ended up being just shy of 11" x 24" (10⅞ x 23¾). I  plan to put a simple frame on this to finish it off.

Price: $530

Which way should I go? Left, right? Oh, what the heck.

As I often use pieces of masonite for my paintings, some - such as this one - are not standard sizes. This is one reason why I include the little display easels, so no framing is required.
