Sailing series on a following sea

Oct 31, 2024

Once-upon-a-time-long-ago, when I lived a boatish life with a boatish family, I spent a lot of time on or near the ocean. Although I never really learned the actual techniques of sailing, I loved being on the boat, sliding along with the wind. Even the sea-sick ick couldn’t keep me at home.

Sailing seems like such freedom. These memories inspired four small paintings for and art show called “It’s Hip to Be Square” at Art on Main in Murphys California.
