Today is the two year anniversary of my son James's passing away. I started this blog as a way to keep me busy afterwards. I worked on this over the weekend and it is based off a photo from a diving trip we took to Belize back in 2007. James and I got to do a lot of things together but this was probably one of the best. This photo is from the first day of the trip and James's first real dive in the ocean. I did this painting in oil paint and it was alla prima, meaning I did this in one go. I have not perfected my technique with this so i will have to improve his face and some details on the scuba gear to make it believable.
