Red Kayak Bliss by Josephine Hardison

Beginning a large painting is the best way to spend a snowy day. I can already see it in my head and can't wait to get it all down onto the canvas.

Then, when it is complete and I step back, I can almost feel the sun on my back and feel the sand under my toes. Well, almost.... but then I look outside, see the snow on the ground and it's back to reality! HaHa! My favorite thing to paint when it is cold and snowy......beaches. But then my favorite thing to paint when it's warm and sunny......beaches! What can I say, I love beaches, visiting them or painting them!!!

I am so excited to head to Orange Beach in March, so I am  painting all things coastal! I'm painting fish, shrimp, seagulls, boats and even lobsters. Lobsters may not be abundant in Alabama but what fun to have this hanging in your beach home! I can see it in someone's kitchen just waiting for a big pot to fill with lobsters for dinner! Hope I'm invited for dinner, love fresh lobster dipped in a little lemon butter, mmmmm!!! I can feel the butter dripping down my chin, but don't tell anyone, shhh!

Well it is cold and snowy in Kentucky, -15 degrees outside so I paint what I love! And this time it is not a beach, shocking I know but tulips are right up there with beaches!! They don't last long but are fascinating to watch bloom. I love when they first open and all the dark inside is peeking through the flower petals. Can't wait for those Spring bulbs to push up through the ground. Should be soon I HOPE!!
