No I didn’t win the big Powerball this weekend, but I do feel like I’ve won the lottery every single time I get to walk along the beaches of Venice, FL.  We’ve worked hard for over 15 years to afford a place by the ocean.  Right now it is a weekend/holiday/vacation getaway and we spend as much time as possible there. Someday it will be my only home.  For now I soak up the sunshine and my winnings…

BEACH Art H.E.R.E.!

A C.H.A.N.G.E. of Season…

It’s beach weather again.  In Florida we really do not get definitive season changes, except in the Spring.  Fall comes and goes without any fanfare.  Winter just brings some cooler days.   Summer is just hot.  But sometime in March everything comes alive with color!  The oaks are almost fluorescent green! Bougainvilleas and azaleas burst in dots and cascades in shades of fuchsia in every yard.  And by the ocean….the sweet beautiful sea….The sea grape leaves turn many shades of red, orange and yellow.  It’s a happy time for this color junkie. 🙂

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…

Nature’s Perfection 2 – Beach Decor

Red Nautilus Shell Art

Sharon Cummings

Mixed Media

Yesterday someone asked me if I could present my Nautilus Shell landscape rather than portrait.  It required me to move my signature so that it would be in the right place for hanging.  It’s funny because I have been looking at this shell for years in a vertical position.  She is delighted and made a purchase right away.  But it still looks odd to me. My brain wants to move it back to it’s original position.  They say “change” is good, so I will just adjust to this new perspective…

A F.I.S.H. Tale…

My “Tropical Fish” is my BEST seller on Fine Art America. But he wasn’t my idea. 9 years ago I got a call from a woman in St. Thomas who was in desperate need for artwork. Her home had been destroyed by Hurricane Ivan and while they had rebuilt, they had no artwork for the walls. Living on a small island left her with no choices for huge abstract paintings.Debbie found me online and fell in love with my style and color choices. She needed 27 over sized paintings for a June wedding that would be held on her property. Her home would be filled with guests and she needed big bold splashes of color. The clincher is that she called me in April…and needed 27 paintings by June! Never one to back away from a challenge, I accepted her order and got to work! I painted daily…Some requiring 3 – 5 days to complete. I had pieces at all levels of drying phases on every table in my house.The fish was the last piece. She called me when I was close to being complete and asked if I could do a large tropical fish instead of the other style she had chosen. I agreed.I did not sketch this fish out. I simply painted intuitively. I didn’t even look at tropical fish online for inspiration. I just selected bright colors and painted him just as you see him (in my mind’s eye). All spontaneous squirts and blobs of paint. I did not use a brush for this work in any area. Water and paint only.

I photographed him and sent him on his way to his new home in St. Thomas. Little did I know that all of these years later, my “Tropical Fish” would be so popular.
