Afternoon at the beach. Painting

I've been oil painting for most of my life and also making fine art photographs. My paintings are a combination of reality and fantasy from the things I see every day that inspire me and give me a positive feeling. I believe that each painting should tell a story with the elements and brush strokes. They should have several levels of meaning that the owner can discover over their years of studying it on the wall. It should become like a personal friend.
