One of the things I like about Ocean City is the sidewalks. You can walk anywhere on a sidewalk, unlike many seaside places where there may be more spaces between homes but very often you end up walking along a highway to get anywhere. Everything is very civilized in Ocean City - some would say too civilized as there is no alcohol allowed. The housing stock says "seashore" to me and I love it. Here are two paintings of those houses including one of Grace Kelly's home at the shore when she was young.

I like how in these recent paintings the canvas size is getting bigger and yet you are retaining the uncluttered designs of the smaller paintings.
When you started enlarging recently , you seemed to add more things into the pictures ...which somewhat mitigated the effect of enlargement imo
One must look closely , even peer at a 5x7. But a 16x16 can impose on our vision ...like windows to a real place.
Love the shore houses and the light!
Thanks Anne. Trying to keep things simple for some reason is the hardest thing!
