Today is a
beautiful day in the Atlanta area! We are experiencing our usual weird weather
this time of year. Last week we had snow and ice, and this week we’ve had fog,
mist and temperatures in the 70’s! Today is a little cooler (50’s) but nothing
like the cold that friends and family up north are experiencing.
On a happy
note, I have noticed daffodils pushing up their yellow heads, a welcome cheery sight
in an otherwise, brown and gray landscape. Speaking of cheery sights, I’m so in
the mood for the beach! I want a view of warm, peach sand and cool blue water,
so today, I’m posting a painting of a beach. This painting is of a beach from
Tofino, which is on the west coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia,
Canada. It’s a beautiful place to walk
and observe all sorts of amazingly colorful starfish and other assorted
wildlife. Tofino has relatively warm winters and cool summers… just the kind of
place I love to visit. However, although I found their cool summer temperatures
a welcome respite from the heat of north Georgia in July, I believe I wore
several layers of clothing every time I walked this beach.
So, as an artist, I changed the view to hopefully convey
warmth and sunshine with an ocean breeze.
May your
weekend be filled with warmth and sun!
