Regal. Doesn’t this sculpture look regal? This is FLYING HERON by Darrell Davis. His work is amazing and he shows locally in Charleston, SC at Anglin Smith Fine Art. FLYING HERON stands an impressive 85″ high.. I love how dark this photo is against the light colored building.
Enjoy your Sunday!

I like the funky blue’s in this photo… this was taken last Friday during the art walk… it was an amazing night for it. I think the prediction of rain kept some people home. There was still a good crowd and it only drizzled right at the very end. This photo looks like it would make a great painting… those clouds, the car lights, the steeple… nice! Have a great weekend!

Plein Air Painters of the Southeast (PAPSE) is a great group of artists that paint “plein air” (painting outdoors). Their work is nothing short of amazing. They have to be quick to catch the light, but each is so talented in their own way. If you are in the Charleston, SC area, you are in for a treat. The Wet Paint Exhibit & Reception Opens – November 8 (TONIGHT!), 2013 from 6 pm – 8 pm at 3 Galleries in Charleston, SC – Can you imagine? Nearly 30 artists paint their hearts out for days in a row in Charleston, then tonight the show appears in three separate galleries… Coco Vivo Fine Art, Edward Dare Gallery and Galerie on Broad – you must check it out! Take a peak at the list of artists in each gallery. I am looking so forward to this!
The exhibit runs through November 16, 2013 – so catch it if you can!

Hope to see you there – catch you back here tomorrow!
Just look at that cool line of fog/mist on the water, pretty amazing isn’t it? I captured this while we were moving… spectacular shot!
Well, almost a spectacular shot… the line of fog/mist turned out to be the window that was rolled down… darn it!
The stillness, reflections and just pure beauty of that place amazes me! This was taken at Botany Bay, a gorgeous place to visit if you ever get the chance, it’s located near Edisto, SC.
Another short post… back to normal on Friday!

There is nothing better than the deck party at Crosby’s Seafood… where you can grab a plate of fried shrimp and sit on the dock… its a great time especially around the time of sunset when you can get some amazing photographs! This photo happened to be taken earlier in the day… Crosby’s has fresh shrimp, fish and oysters as well as bait, beer and ice! Check it out if you’re in the area!

Well Daylight Savings Time is coming to an end in this part of the country, which means you get an extra hour of sleep, never a bad thing, right? Don’t forget to set your clocks, watches, oven, microwave, etc. back one hour before you hit the hay!
What are you going to do with this extra hour? I think I will probably wake up at 4AM instead of 5 for the next foreseeable future! Might as well get up and enjoy the day, right? I’ll catch you back here tomorrow, and I promise to be very well rested, hee…

O N E Y E A R A G O… An artsy halloween! Pumpkinscape by artist Jamie Wyeth!
T W O Y E A R S A G O… IS THIS REAL? WHOA? Happy Halloween!
This painting has such a nice autumn feel to it. I feel like I could be driving down this road on the way to the cider mill to get some wonderful crisp apples, a glass of cider and one of those wonderful little cinnamon sugar doughnuts to go with it. All that happiness squeezed in to this painting and no calories! I could look at this painting all day… the wonderful warm colors, the shadow and light, the distance that you feel… nice! This painting is at ART ON THE BOULEVARD in downtown Vancouver, WA. There is a first Friday reception November 1, 2013 from 5-9PM. If you’re in the area check it out, otherwise check out Romona’s website!
Read a blip about Romona from her website:
Romona likes to trick the eye, using muted colors and blurred contours painted as softly as a whisper. But in reality her canvasses are a war zone and her weapons of choice-sand paper, ends of brushes, rags and anything unconventional she can employ in battle. She knows the skirmish is over when the painting has the power to speak directly to the viewer. When an onlooker can not resist stepping into her world full of atmosphere, mystery and a mood that takes you back to days gone by, she knows the battle has been won.
Her studio is tucked away in the lush Red Hills of Dundee Oregon, overlooking flourishing vineyards and breathtaking landscapes. Much of her inspiration comes from her surroundings-be it a weathered farmhouse, an ancient alder standing alone in resplendent autumn hues, or a muted meadow that pulls one’s thoughts to a conscious digression.
Self taught with nature as her classroom and the great masters her teachers, she knew at age four that painting would be her calling. Today you’ll find her paintings as far away as Germany, London and downtown Manhattan. Her works have been published in the premier art magazines including Southwest Art, American Art Collector and Art Talk.

Fall is fabulous… my absolute favorite time of year! The days are getting cooler now… soon the time changes and we get an extra hour of sleep, woohoo! Charlie especially loves it because in addition to walking in the morning, he can get a walk in after dinner. We always feel better if we move after we eat… can’t just sit!
Hope you all have a wonderful week
