Teahupo, Big Big Wave, Little Canvas


I'm fascinated by this huge wave. And scared just thinking of the pull I would feel sitting on my surf board near the peak. God, I miss the ocean and surfing.

Blue Sky to Water



I did a few environmental color studies earlier in the blog, maybe you remember the one that went from the earth's core to the ocean's surface. This study is from the sky to the trees to the water.

He Said Hello to his Juice that he dropped

Goodbye

Possible Opener

The Street and Sidewalk

The Kitchen

His Socks


Go Red Sox, his socks have to be red.

I thought the first one looked a little muddy.

Grandpa in Blue

His Room and Night Light

Hello to his Clock

Hello to Mom when she said Goodnight

Grandpa and His Fish


My grandpa is one of my favorite people on earth. He has a few shirts he does his yard work in, they inspired this grandpa's shirt, but my pop's shirts are blue. I may have to change this one.

The Horse and His Hay


My family is on a horse movie kick. So this one was easy, I'm clear that my favorite color horses are brown and white.

Barton Springs Austin Texas


I fear running out of water. This spring fed pool makes Austin great. It's a miracle that it exists. I've decided today that if the entire world relied on solar energy maybe we could reverse global warming.
