I’ve always been a dancer, but mostly behind closed doors.  When I was young I learned how to square dance in school.  But that kind of movement never moved me.  I also taught aerobic classes for quite a few years and while it did involve some rhythmic body steps, it was not quite tripping the light fantastic.  When I paint, I always start out with some simple jumps and steps to music to loosen me up.  I listen while I work and take breaks now and again to get my body in sync with the melody that is currently playing.  And I finish with my own type of dancing.  To me art has always been a type of dance…..

Sometimes you have to take a new look at an old piece and see a better way to present it.  This one has languished in my portfolio long enough.  It was good, but not great.  I took this photograph a few years ago while on vacation with my husband in Sarasota, Florida.  It was high tourist season and the beaches were filled with screaming children, lobster people and old folks slathered in sunscreen. As we walked the shore after dinner, there was this one magic moment.  A little girl playing in the sand all alone.  She was not playing with any of the other children nearby.  Mom and Dad watched from a safe distance and it just struck me that she looked so happy.  Completely oblivious to her surroundings…totally absorbed in the pleasure of the beach sand….she had “Perfect Company”.
