Inspirations

"Blue Shift"'
I am really enjoying the challenges of my newest series of paintings. Finding inspiration from the ocean and moving water means a cooler, more tranquil palette of colors. Water has been an important element in my environment since childhood. Part of growing up in Florida is embracing the springs and ocean as a means of cooling off in the summer-time. Standing in a stream bed in North Carolina listening to the water fall above you...it's heavenly. This is the first finished painting in the series. More to come.
