Sundown Boat


This image from an Internet slide show of great photos spoke to me about serenity, the ocean, and a great sundown. It is so simple, yet makes a great statement. I'm starting to really like water reflections.

More Tubac Pots





Tubac Pots


During a golfing trip to Tubac, Arizona last Fall, we stayed with good friends at the Tubac Resort. They had some wonderful pots outside their home. Another friend from Tubac loves to have friends paint a pot for a wall in her Tubac home. It just fits!! This post and the next one are my interpretations of those pots. I hope that they like them !!

The Door

I started out naming this the "French Door", as I guessed that the photo image that I saw was from France. But, at an art show in Florida, many people envivioned it as somewhere else, like Ireland or another European country. The Irish won out as they pointed to the Irish linen in the window. In any case, it was a hit, and now hangs in a home in Naples.

Jo Jo's First Ocean


"Jo Jo" is Johanna, our two year old grand daughter. During Thanksgiving, 2009, the whole faimly got together at Stinson Beach, just north of the Golden Gate Bridge in northern California. A great time !!! One of the highlites was seeing Johanna experience the ocean, first hand. The waves. The birds. Everything!! This painting is the second in a series of my four grand daughters. All showing them "in motion". Stay tuned!
