Every artist has his or her own art personality. We find we gravitate to scenes, places and events that involve water in some way. Maybe its because we have spent so much time along Lake Michigan, around the great lakes and along the California and Washington shorelines. Lake Michigan has the clean clear water and sunsets to die for, as well as clear water rivers and streams. The ocean shorelines have water that moves in amazing ways in a different every time kinda way. What could beat an afternoon on some beautiful shoreline in an Adirondack chair. Or sailing against your personal best speed and trim. We seek to find the heart of a topic or subject and then paint around it. Click individual images for painting details...
