Hello Whidbey

Sitting on the Ferry floating back  to our home on Whidbey Island I notice all the unique ferry shapes and think they might translate to a painting.

Wind Surfing

The background for "Wind Surfing" was painted some time ago but it never really felt finished.  I'm sure it was waiting for the Eagle that flew over today.

What magnificent raptures. We have so many of them on our island.
