Which means I will not be around much for the next 6 weeks.  After that the water will be too cold to swim in for us Floridians.  The salt and the waves call to me…

“On The Shore”

Mixed Media Beach Art Painting

2015

.

I’ve been busy making some changes in my life.  I am no longer following the same routine each day and changing things up to keep it fresh!  Much to my great surprise, I have discovered that “walking away” from my job for 1, 2, 3 or even 4 days hasn’t changed my sales at all.  So I am planning a lot more “me” time this year. 🙂  I know that a more relaxed and happier me will make a better artist for all of my fans.

Not So Angry Birds

Growing up, my Mom always admonished me to “never feed the seagulls!”  For one thing they may poop on your head and for another they can become aggressive and come for food that you have not released from your hands yet. Then Alfred Hitchcock came out with the movie “The Birds” which further instilled the idea that these creatures were angry little monsters.  The truth is that I have been around these beauties of the beach my whole life and I have never been attacked.  Yes, I have fed them (shhhhh….don’t tell Mom!).  I find them to be shy and aloof most of the time.  To photograph them, you have to be quiet and move gently.  It is true that they will swarm for food, but that is just normal animal behavior.  In this photographic art piece I try to capture their beauty and gentleness.  These two look to be dancing.  While they may not be angry after all….they just might drop a bomb on you when you aren’t looking. 😉
