THE WETLANDS, 6x8, OIL, SOLD, Daily Painting



In Florida we have an abundance of wetlands, especially along the coasts.  They are home to birds of all kinds, not to mention, otters, snakes, gators and bobcats.

This image is the Viera wetlands, very famous in the birding community.  Birder's from around the world visit the wetlands hoping to spy a rare type of bird.  They also come for the annual bird count.


Our state is such a fascinating place to live.  We can offer much more than just beaches and Mickey Mouse.

MARSH VIEW, 4X12, OIL, SOLD


“We need the tonic of wildness, to wade sometimes in marshes where the bittern and the meadow-hen lurk, and hear the booming of the snipe; to smell the whispering sedge where only some wilder and more solitary fowl builds her nest, and the mink crawls with its belly close to the ground.”
Henry David Thoreau

GOLDEN MARSH II, 5X7, OIL







Just a little marsh scene.  I find it very relaxing to turn out a few of these simple paintings occasionally.  After several hours spent on a more complex painting, this feels almost as good as a massage.
