Shark Fin Cove

Wow! What a glorious place, cannot figure how I've driven past dozens of times and not gotten a glimpse of this spectacular cove.  Arrived late in the day and had the good luck of high surf and huge waves crashing in, therefore many photographs were taken along with getting a little poison oak which is almost gone.  Here is the (hopefully) first painting:
I'm not sure if it is completed since I've been staring at it too long.  Here is the video of it being made:
This is 24"x36" oil on canvas in the deep frame.  I'm most satisfied with the water and rock area in the lower right quadrant which pulls a bit from the pale blue shimmer along the left.  Enjoy!
