BEACH VOLLEYBALL PAINTINGS IN OIL ON CANVAS

TWO SMALLER OIL PAINTINGS I HAVE COMPLETED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO

These paintings of of Beach Volleyball, which I enjoyed watching when on holiday in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, capture the voluptuous colours of the Caribbean.  The beach game was very popular and lively, and was near the beach bar so a nice place to sit and watch, with my sketch book and camera ready.  The girls often wore bikinis and the boys those long baggy shorts which are not at all flattering!  Evening was the best time to watch, with the long shadows.  Wish I was there right now!
