Description
Print available here!I spent last week in Virginia Beach for a family reunion. On the final night, the waves were glowing a bluish-green, and the sand itself looked like twinkling stars. If you stomped around in the wet sand, it looked like flashes of lightning. Until that night I had no idea that this phenomenon existed (bioluminescent plankton), so it was an amazing and surprising sight to behold. In addition, the Milky Way was visible, and my sister saw some shooting stars.
All my photos of the waves sucked so I decided to paint what I saw that night, with my own personal twist ofc! I've been considering doing more scenery pics since they don't take as long and allow me to exercise more creative freedom

I really like the blend between the sky and the sea.
And it surely does wonderful in real life, I've never seen it, so I can only imagine, but it must be really pretty.

Wonderful
Fish are unable to travel to the high places
But fishes meet meteors more than birds and humans
Because the meteors are falling in the oceans
Fish benefit from space elements π
Elements turn into ions dissolve in water
Fish eat ummy ummy strange elements some of them become monsters Agressive behaviour
and some friendly, rare and Unique
Fish food healthy but unpleasant odor
Yuk π
Have nice day β€οΈπ

I never knew you painted scenery.Β
You are really talented hunny ;_;
All the details.. Makes me wish I could see what you had seen.Β
Though Β the picture feels kinda lonely from the way I'm looking at it, as if someone is staring out at the water and waiting for something or someone.Β

Now you know! 
It was truly a beautiful sight, I wish you could have seen it too. I like your interpretation of the image. I feel the theme of loneliness manifests itself in my art quite often, whether I consciously realize it or not.
Thank you so much!

What you hav seen might have been the Leonides Swarm that passes the Earth around that time of the year, no idea if it's an annual event or only every few years though

It's very possible! I'm bummed I missed it, I was too focused on the waves haha. I heard the meteors were quite large. Also, thank you!
