Colorful Palm Trees

Sharon Cummings

2014

The beach days are almost over here in Florida.  It comes with mixed feelings.  There is the joy of cool crisp air and a chance to be outside on the trails.  But the damp cold of the sea is a bit too much.  I will miss it.  Until I return home…

If you are lucky….you have that one person in your life that has stuck with you through thick and thin.  No sin has been so great that it has not been forgiven.  No hardship so horrible that the burden could not be shared.  That special someone has a voice and heart that beckons a phone call at any hour.  A hand that is always at the ready to steady you or just to say “I am here” and “I will stand by you”.  For many it is Mom, but my Mother abandoned me emotionally and physically from a very early age.  My Dad passed when I was 10 and though I have had friends come and go in my life, for the past nearly 12 years, I have had that special someone.  Thank you Bill….my husband….my love….the one who is always by my side….

And we were side by side when this shot was taken….

When I take photographs, I like to either find a story or have the piece ask a question. Palm trees are everywhere in Florida and there is no great mystery to them.  But this one was all alone and one of the tallest palms I have ever seen.  High into the clouds….what is happening below?  There could be lovers sitting and chatting.  A dog could be asleep.  A bike could be propped up against it’s trunk.  It could be right on the ocean or in a parking lot.  The vibrant blue sky reveals nothing.  What story do you see?

No Palm Trees?

I was recently helping someone on Houzz decorate their “coastal” living space when they asked me if I had anything with palm trees.  I had to think about it, but was surprised to realize that out of all of the tropical pieces I have in my portfolio, not a one of them had palm trees.  I live in the tropics and palm trees are everywhere, but somehow I have not featured them in my art.  I’ve got beaches, sunsets over the water, tropical flowers, fish, crabs, boats, etc.  Jimmy buffet wouldn’t be happy.  So today I have listed my first piece of artwork featuring palm trees.  The graceful beauties of the tropics…enjoy!
