Sunsets of the Old Year and Sunrise in the New Year

I’m a little late in posting my sketches while I fight off a lingering cold. I’ve been meaning to post some sunset sketches in Santa Monica last week to mark the end of the year – better now than never, right? 😉 I never tire of watching and painting the sunset over the ocean – here they are, ordered from beginning of the year toward the end:

I also sketched the sun setting on the beach on the last day of 2013, and sketched the beach again as the sun was rising on the first day of 2014. Click on the sketch to see the beach, from night to morning, from old year to the new – hope your new year is off to a great start!
