Dogwood, Spanish Moss & Azaleas


Spending March with sister, Sue in Florida, gave me the opportunity to experience an early spring this year.  In addition to warm weather, the dogwoods and azaleas were in full bloom.  Who could resist painting them?  This is a framed  pastel,  14" x 18".   Questions? jfree@wildblue.net

Bench and Buoy

 This bench which is situated on the edge of a Monhegan Island cliff  was a great place to meditate and be thankful for all the joys in my life.
