Adrift

Good things can come from tough weather beach hikes :) in fact, sometimes those are the best kind. (usually after you are home and dried out though)  Gnarly suits me for the moment:  difficult, dangerous, or challenging : [ORIGIN: originally surfers' slang, perhaps from the appearance of rough sea.]  Maybe I should change the title, hmmm.  This also belongs in the "places between" series; between stages of life, between tides, seasons, storms, challenges, between thought and action.

A Place Between, Estuary

This belongs in the "Places Between" series..... between sea and shore, between tides, between salt and sweet, between summer squalls, between now and then.

Shoreline Shell

On a roll with a shoreline series, treasures to be found.... and great warm ups too. 

Bluster and Foam

I'm beginning to enjoy working with the "open" acrylics.... not to mention manufacturing my own warm & sunny days.  A little bluster is ok too :)

Remember Summer?

Memories are powerful things :)  bonfire smells, soft breeze, birds settling in to roost.  Dig out your sleeping bag it's a good night to sleep outside..... ahhhhh, summer.  (sigh, a painter can dream anyway)

Stella

Stella is enjoying "retirement" in her favorite location.

Pick Me!

My sister is finally getting her great dane puppy.... no, not this one, but I'm sure I'll have the opportunity to paint her little girl soon.  No one in their right mind can resist puppies, not these giant floppy ones with humongous pink feet, pick Me, pick Me :)
