A glimpse of a girl in a blue dress with a straw hat on a sand dune in Prince Edward Island, Canada led to this painting. I have always been attracted to landscape paintings with figure as the main interest. Now my skills have improved to such a level that I feel confident in trying out my own vision onto canvas. What do you think of my efforts?

| I often develop a landscape from the faraway things first. |
