Artists statement: I love Florida! - The beaches, marshes, and meandering rivers and creeks, huge puffy clouds so low they seem to touch the ground, spectacular sunsets that, night after night, are never the same. Palm fronds sway in gentle breezes creating the loveliest of sounds, and brilliant bougainvillea blossoms peek around old wooden fences ...but Florida is changing. Quaint old “cracker” houses are being replaced with modern, new structures, and the lush green land is giving way to big residential and commercial developments, altering the very aspects that have given Florida its unique character and flavor. I’m painting as fast as I can to capture this “old Florida,” this Florida I love, before it disappears and is gone forever.
