Sand Fence 1

Ink and Watercolor wash - 5x7

As the storms of summer roll past the dunes, the sand fence stands faithfully in his place surrounded by his companions the sea oats.  Together, they slow the inevitable changes in the shifting and drifting sand.

Remembered

Watercolor 7x5

While away from home this week, I was able to complete this small watercolor view of Lake Ray at the Jacksonville Arboretum.  The foundation for the painting was a photo on my phone from a recent paint-out, but the final work was done as a reconstruction of memories.  It is from those memories that I assigned this piece the title, "Remembered."  I gave this painting with deep gratitude to my son and his family for their most gracious hospitality during our visit.
