Day at the Beach Painting

I live in the land of long cold winters so this reminds me of a warm sunny beach and a place to get away from the cold. Even though its mostly a painting of a face it still was a warm feeling of summer at the beach. Nobody in particular just a regular blonde hair blue eyed American guy spending time in the ocean water. Kind of a Pop Art feel to it. This is painted on a rather large and thick piece of cardboard. I start by sealing the edges up with brown paper tape. This adds some strength and looks more like a solid board when finished although the corners are not solid like a board. See included pictures, these would be hidden once framed. I then apply about 4 coats of gesso on both sides with a painting knife, sanding slightly between coats. The end results is a smooth hard surface to paint on, very nice and light. Also the paper of the cardboard is now protected from any painting.
