Beach bocce

Oil on canvas, 8" x 10"

I've been wanting to paint these ladies for a while, and finally did it. This is a study; I want to try a larger version.

I took a workshop with Milt Kobayashi once, whose work I love; instead of using white he uses a light yellow. Recently I bought a tube of unbleached titanium white. It's a funny color, kind of like putty, and I used it as my lightest light in this painting.
