Whidbey Island is in the Pacific Northwest, a beautiful island in the great State of Washington and a place I love to call home. Locals call it "The Rock" because it was formed from glacial rock during the ice age.
When I was younger I never thought I would stay any place more than a year or so. That's how I grew up (military) and I didn't see that changing in my forseeable future. I had not met Whidbey yet. But, when I did, I fell in love with land like I never had before. Yep, I'm pretty well planted here now.
This is so beautiful and serene, it makes me want to get in there and really try harder with landscape...I live in similar scenic beauty so I am very inspired now!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Karen. Having boated in your part of the world, I know there is inspiration at every turn. I can hardly wait to see what you decide to paint. I'll be watching...
ReplyDeleteOh Sandy!! I'm speechless again. This painting is beautiful. I love the pink in the water that is reflected from the sky. I only wish I didn't live on the other side of the Country right now.! I would have loved to see your show! Good luck with it.
