It's Time for Show and Tell Monday!




"Beach Bouquet"
A painting from my talented artist sister, Liz. Doesn't this just remind you of Summer days past? I can feel the ocean breeze and smell the fragrance of the flowers. Nothing like a reliable, rusty old bicycle to get us around town and down to the beach. Once there, off go the flip flops or sneakers, where we sink our toes into the warm sand to take a leisurely walk by the shore. I'm ready for Summer, if we can only get to Spring!

(Prints available, signed and numbered $45.00)

Susie,
The minute I hit your blog I was back on my beach cruiser braving the desert winds, hair whipping madly in my face. Pulling up to my white picket fence I leaned the bike right next to the gate and went to get a drink of cool water from the coiled garden hose. I didn't have the ocean breeze experience, but the painting sure took me back to yesteryear, lol. What talent!!!

Suzie, that is so lovely. It makes me dream for warm weather. I have to say it has warmed up a tad here today in MA. I'm looking forward to going outside and going for a drive in the sun.
