Castaway

This cottage was at a colorful resort on the beach at Sanibel Island. All the units were different colors. It was there for seventy plus years. But, no more. These were a sad casualty of hurricane Ian. Many places like this including Ft. Myers beach are gone. Sad sad sad. We are big regular beach people, part of the reason we came here seven years ago, but we haven't been able to go since the storm.The beaches are mostly closed due to damage, debris or bad water. I can't wait for them to be back. 

Hospital Garden

 

 Haven't posted since last October. I thought it was much longer than that. I've done a lot of painting but have not been able to finish much. Why??? That's my big question. But I'm on a kick to finish everything. And I''m working on new things all the time.

This was painted on a beautiful morning at the Gardens at the Naples Hospital. Truly a gift for the patients, employees and the public. Tried to capture the quiet morning light but I don't think it was successful.
