Gorgeous! I love the vibrant greens and blues of beach scenes. Looking at this, I almost feel like I'm there. It reminds me of a Florida vacation I took a couple years ago.
I like pictures that have people in them, but don't make the people the main focus. Usually I do it for humor, but it's also nice just to be a fly on the wall (or on the beach in this case) and watch the people go about their day. I actually didn't notice the person in the tree until the second time I looked.
I'm happy you like it. It was really nice to do the difference between the shallow and deep water and the glaring sunshine - not something I usually do. It's funny how things that are boring in photos can make such nice paintings. I love how very clear water makes things seem to float in midair. The coconut picker was requested by the client, actually :)
A fantasy map I did for the Iron Teeth novels by Scott Straughan. This will appear in book two of the series, to be found on Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/Goblins-Tale-Iron-Teeth-Book-ebook/dp/B071LHHY85/ I really enjoy using brushes that emulate messy mediums. Painter's Liquid Ink brushes produce strokes that flow together like tiny pools and can be made to look like old, haphazardly drawn maps. And there is a dragon in a ruined city. Really cool commission.
This is a card template for a Dungeon Master presenting his players with magic items in play. There are several colour options for the frames and corners.
