A Mermaids Tale ~Two Plein air from my home beach....

[lovin art]

Where fresh water runs
there runs spirit...for it comes from
the realm of the earth goddess and
bears her gifts

Enjoyable peotry Sandra - written and painted - and all so nice to see it. Good direction of the strokes in the first piece. The colors are nice in the second, but I like the composition of the first even more. Both have a nice light in them!

Sandra, There is always a beautiful color harmony in your seascapes that I never see anywhere else.

It's a new flavor that is delicious
Kind of like sherbert icecream

Hi Sandra There is a freshness and spontaneity in these; love the sky and rocks and the water is translucently delightful...

I like the poem too! You inspired me! Maybe every painting shown should have a poem with it...


I feel the water rushing through my veins
Refreshing my thirsty soul
I take hold of those watery reins
to govern them to make me whole.

FD , I love that poem , its wonderful and so are you for posting and sharing it with me .... and Im so pleased to read my work is inspiring .... great to know and glad to see this ...
