Woman (Beauty, Strength, Grace)
I am always thrilled to be a part of a cause that has the potential to inspire and/or change lives.
In October of 2010, David Sandum ( @DavidSandumArt ) organized the First Twitter Art Exhibit to help raise funds that would go towards the purchase of new children's books for the Moss Public Library. I am fortunate to be part of a circle of extraordinarily talented and accomplished artists from all corners of this globe and it was truly incredible to watch the Twitter art community come together, graciously donating quality art towards this beautiful cause.
When David asked if I would consider contributing to the 2nd Twitter Art Exhibit, of course I said yes. How wonderful that proceeds from this exhibit, again in Moss Norway, will go to The Women's Crisis Center, thus greatly benefitting women in crisis (and their children) whether they need, food, shelter or counseling.
My contribution, an original watercolor painting, is intended to honor the beauty, strength and grace of woman at her best. A pleasure, to again share wall space with many special souls and to share my art (this one, pure joy to paint!) for this most worthy cause.

A Moment In Time...~
The view that makes me go weak in the knees....
The car ride seemed endless. The anticipation, unbearable. Shoulder to shoulder, small hands and noses pressed to glass. Waiting, for that first moment when you'd see just a glimpse of blue beyond the boardwalk between the lines and shadows of the buildings. My heart still beats faster at the first sight of sand and saltwater.
Some moments stay with us, always....~

A Quiet Calm...
Awash...
As sometimes happens, the quality of the light, the way it falls or rises, can trigger nuances of nostalgia. Ephemeral, those moments, awash in the perception of memory...~

She Breathes Cerulean ~
Aquarelle runs deep within the lines of her.
She breathes cerulean...
Floating transparent, in the tides of time.
New work, 3 views...a small watercolor study honoring the mermaids among us.
