Beginning A New Series

I spent some time a bit ago in the Providence, Rhode Island, area collecting beach rocks with my older daughter and husband.  I took many photos of the arrangement of the rocks and this year decided to start a new series of paintings based on that trip.  There is something quite soothing and peaceful about the smoothness of the rocks and the colors as they collect on the sand.  I'm looking forward to displaying these paintings sometime in 2011.
