Love of the Sea !

























Born on the East Coast and spending every summer of my life from age 5 till 18 on an island of the southern coast of Maine..(picture at top of the blog)...has made my relationship with the ocean a big part of my life...I can spend hours at the shore just watching the waves roll in and out, the way the sky can change in such a short time and watching weather roll in...the birds and boats and everything that swims, or crawls to shore...I even love seaweed and how it smells when the tide goes out....the salt in the air is like catnip...so I miss it...don't get me wrong I am loving the Southwest more and more every day...but what would make this paradise is a beach....truly....


I think I might just have to take a trip to the ocean...I feel the pull of the water...like no other thing I can think of...my mother always called my sisters , brother & I water babies...she swore that our feet were webbed...lol.....anyway..designing and painting some from the sea, always makes me happy...mountains just don't do it for me...lol...now the dessert does ,but people all that is missing in the dessert is the beach...I think that is a oxymoron ...lol...oh well I guess I will just have to make do and take a shower with my eyes closed and imagine the sea...lol...
