I've
always loved the ocean - it balances both beauty and power so easily.
One
of our favorite vacation spots is Ocean Isle Beach in North Carolina. It's
not far from the hustle and bustle of Myrtle Beach, but the difference of
a few miles creates a buffer that allows for a little relaxation. The last
time we were there was late spring and the wind was just a little nippy
but the beach was almost deserted. What a perfect time to enjoy more than
just the baking sun!
The
smell of the ocean, the constant breeze, the wet sand between my toes, all
are memories I have tried to capture in this painting.
