Work in Progress - Stormy Sea with ?something

This is the start of a new painting I'm doing for myself. It is larger than what I usually do. 20" x 16". I want a sunset, but storm forming overhead. Here I have put the basic elements in, but will have to add lightning etc later.
Work started on the water. I have to add waves etc, but wanted to figure out the "lay of the land" sort of speak. In Saskatchewan we have very dramatic sunsets. I want this painting to be very bold to, so have chosen bright bold colours for the evening sky.
The next stage after the water will be painting the shore line and adding a "mystery object" that I will reveal later. Please check back to see the progress.

How are the Prairies similar to the sea? Ships and Storms

How are the prairies and the sea similar? The wide open spaces and the beautiful sunsets. Storm watching and dependence on the weather. I'm drawn to the sea, the same as I miss the flat land when I'm not here. Don't get me wrong...I love the mountains, but start yearning for open space when I am there. Give me a good old big sunset any day :)

Lighthouse, Seascape, Storm painting

As storm starts brewing. The lighthouse stands as a lone sentry to guide ships safely passed the rocks. Painted with acrylics, this aceo (2.5" x 3.5") is signed and dated on the back. You will find it listed here
