This painting was inspired by one of my favorite vacation spots - the Virgin Islands. This particular island is St. John. It is a fairly long walk to get to Salomon Bay beach and the only way to get there is to walk or go by boat (you could possibly swim around the rocks from another beach).

This painting was inspired by one of my favorite vacation spots - the Virgin Islands. This particular island is St. John. It is a fairly long walk to get to Salomon Bay beach and the only way to get there is to walk or go by boat (you could possibly swim around the rocks from another beach). It is very private and used to be a nude beach. It is often deserted so it's a good spot to relax under the palm trees (unfortunately, the palms and a lot of sand were washed away during Hurricanes Irma and Maria, but the sand was coming back and there were baby palms sprouting up the last time I was there).

It is an acrylic painting finished with a satin varnish.

While some artists may view the world as horrible and ugly, I do not

like to paint "ugly" art.  Like literature, I believe that art should

be a form of "escape" from the ugliness of the world. I like to evoke a pleasant

emotion through my art (such as a happy memory or a sense of deja vu)....

I also like to travel-I am inspired by colorful Caribbean sunsets,

palm trees blowing in the breeze, ocean tides, Tuscany hill towns, or even a dead tree hanging onto the side of a cliff at the Grand Canyon ....

 I seldom paint people in my art as I like the viewers to imagine

themselves in my place, seeing what I am seeing and feeling what I am

feeling.  I enjoy the solitude of a beautiful sunset or ocean waves roaring to the shore.

I married in 2013 and moved  from Raleigh to the coastal North Carolina.  My

husband is a building contractor and built a beautiful art studio for

me in our home  and allowed me to "retire" at an early age from my

life as a paralegal.

I attended East Carolina University School of Art in Greenville, NC,

as a painting major with a drawing minor.
