  Carol- Love the pastel colors. Just awesome. A beautiful work you did with the different squared colors. Makes for such a beautiful picture and highlights the shells.
Merry Christmas to you and your family. May it be filled with joy and happiness.

  Very nice treatment here, Carol. The subdued pastels and the filmy background texture go very well with the title and impression you wanted to create.

  Carol, this is absolutely beautiful! I love everything about it ~ a real work of art!
No surprise it's got an EFP plaque. Can't wait to see it again later this month...
Meanwhile HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and those you love!!

  Thank you all so much for your kind words of encouragement. I don't know what made me choose this image to work on; I guess it was because it is winter and I miss swimming (although it isn't too cold here). Also, I haven't been to the beach since late Sept. Anyway, I have always wanted to use the quadrant colors on something, but it has never looked right before. This time, the center division worked well with the big shell, and the pastel colors looked so summery, so it just seemed to come together. I like the end result, and I am glad you all do too. :)

  Yes... this work is outstanding. I could see a photo retailer selling this in frames at a Kohl's or Bed Bath & Beyond. Would look great in my bathroom. Very peaceful composite of tranquil colors.
