I could watch water for days, lakes, oceans and harbors with boats. And watching the sky, I could do that for days as well. I'm a gonner if I'm on a boat in open water.

I paint in North Carolina, mostly on the coast. But I love my urban counterparts in Winston and Asheville. They bring me back to life after being lulled by the sea.

Almost everything. Food is near the top of the list. Friends are at the very top.

Not much.

Music, Design, Architecture, Guitars.

Thanks for the well-wishes for my show..it should be a lot of fun!  Spring is in the air here...it's getting warmer & the 1st flowers are up so I bet you'll be outdoors painting in no time...and I'm sure your new work will be fantastic!

Be well,

Lauren

Thanks for the kind words about my "Bamboo Abstract" photo...I like the abstract quality of that image as well.  Hope you're enjoying the Spring so far...guess as it gets warmer it must inspire you to paint even more as your themes are bright and "summery"!  Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Nice to meet you too!  Your work is really alive & vibrant!  Love those blues with the contrasting oranges.  And you've mastered the rippling water effect! Makes me feel like I'm on vacation...(wish I was!)

Talk to you again soon.

:) Lauren

Douglas, Thanks for your comments on "Enamored". I like the "feeling in an urban mood" statement. Exactly where I was going with it. Now, it's off to see the lights of the big city...   -Don

Douglas, Great to be your friend. Yeah, well Nevada isn't bad but Pawleys is better, but what the hey ! ! ! It was great fun meeting Don. It will be neat if you get out this way, maybe we can all get together.

Douglas, great gallery and I enjoyed exploring your web site.

Douglas, When are you going to put the new one up here on ASB for all our art buddies to see? I've been by your blog and website a couple times to enjoy it. "Harbor Lights" is another great one. I absolutely love the composition and the richness of color. And, those reflections are most excellent.

I would leave a comment on your blog, but I'm being hardheaded about creating a Google blog account since I already have a blog of my own. I may have to break down and give in to 'the man' eventually, but for now the rebel lives... Now, if you know a trick for me to be able to leave you comments without having to create a Google account, please, do tell.  -Don

I share your love of watching water. Your work is beautiful and makes me want to visit the ocean. Thanks for the inspiration.
