My favorite harbor is at Mevagissey in Cornwall, England. I recently went there and was thrilled to see all of the boats.

Along the ocean you’ll see pelicans resting on the boat docks.

The Byodo-In-Temple is in Oahu located at the foot of the Ko’oalu Mountains in Valley of the Temples Memorial Park. I was absolutely overwhelmed by it’s beauty and knew I needed to do a painting of it.

I love boats–Norene and I have been to Nantucket a couple of times and have enjoyed just walking around and seeing them docked or floating in the water. I especially like to look at their reflections.

Apalachicola is a town in Florida on the Gulf of Mexico southeast of Panama City. It’s a really cool place with lots of boutique stores and restaurants. I like to go to the shore to see boats docked there. This is how I remember the place.

Whenever I’m troubled, a stroll along the beach, listening to the waves come in, my answers always happen.

The shadows and highlights on these blossoms bring them to life.

On the northeast side of Oahu is Laie Point. It is formed by an old lava flow. Early one morning I walked out to the point to see the sunrise. My breath was taken away! Here’s my impression of that moment.
