Sometimes I wake up from a dream about a painting or how I would like a subject to look.

I get a lot of inspiration from other artists I'm connected to on Facebook now.

I actually took this photo a long time ago of my girlfriends daughter Jackie when we were on Prudence. My family owned a house there. This beach was across the dirt road at "Sandy Beach".  I finally found a way to paint this in a way I am very pleased with.
