I have completed three new paintings this Spring and am nearly done with a fourth. First was a somewhat abstract view of the local area's shrimpboats. This is a bit of a departure for me, but I enjoyed it and am happy with the result. The second is a scene from the trip we took a year ago to the Greek Isles. The almost tame pink pelicans on the beach there were posing for pictures. I had to oblige. The third is from my own backyard. Butterflies and bees seem to love my bottlebrush tree. The colors are so vivid that I had to try to capture them.
