Once again, this painting is from my trip to Ocean City, at the Jersey shore. I'm not really sure what makes a girl a "Jersey girl", or if these women even qualify as "girls" anymore. Or, if they grew up in New Jersey and used to be Jersey girls. But, to me, Jersey girls hang out together and talk about important things. And, these two definately fit that bill! So, here's to all the Jersey girls!

As a Bona fide "Jersey Girl" , I love this painting! Its wonderful to be "down the shore" in New Jersey! I don't have big hair, and I hate malls!

Natalie, thanks for trying to help me understand Jersey girls.

Yes Dana, But maybe if I paint a few more beach scenes the summer will continue!

Deb, I wish I could go back now. I'm sure it would be quieter and calmer.

I like both of your beach paintings and the way you simplified the shapes and colors of the scene. Very nice, Pam!
