This is wonderful, Deirdre! You never cease to amaze me, not only on how much art you're able to produce, but also the quality of it! They always look fantastic!
I especially love how you're able make the water look so realistic in pastels.

Beautiful blues and greens. How do you keep the colors so brilliant? Nice composition too.
