After a short trip back to my "comfort zone" (see last few paintings), when I thought I'd had it with the waves, I realized I hadn't...
The weather changed from mild and sunny to cold and stormy and with it, the look of the sea changed, too - of course. So, I felt challenged again ( which went along with a sigh, I must admit) and battled with the difficult subject. So, another few waves to come...
