Painting of the Day ... Sanibel Island

Here in Atlanta we are expecting the hottest weather of the season. All the more reason to choose a beach scene for my painting of the day. Wouldn't it be nice to run and jump into the Gulf and then spend a lazy day floating on a raft...or my favorite way to float....on a noodle net! This is a view from an area on Sanibel on Middle Gulf Drive near the Waterside Inn. There were several large Australian Pines that the ospreys would rest and feed in. I spent many hours quietly watching these awesome birds. Look for Osprey paintings soon. This painting is one of my current ebay offerings.
