Been to the beach , yet? " Horseneck Beach #1 ", prints available Dear Friends Old and New, Beaches are busy . Gardens are busy. People are busy. Even movie-theaters are busy! A glorious time of year around here-- we are near the ocean, so we're cooler than millions of Americans who are roasting by all accounts. Humidity and rain of recent weeks seems to be subsiding. We're drying off. Honeybees, I hope, are recovering. Garden mold and rot will fail to catch on, we all hope. I prefer the early mornings and latter part of the day, as many do, a good time to cut grass and tend to summer chores like trimming, weeding, raking, building up our compost pile.

Days...Gray and Humid! Nice beach days ...ahead? We'll see!  " Horseneck Beach #4" Art Print Dear Friends Old and New, Some unexpectedly cool days, nights... then some 100+ degree days; now, a week of rain. Ok, we'll be patient. Last year a drought was setting in, about now. This year, gardens are carrying a lot of water. Soil is becoming saturated. Watering holes are full. Honey-bees can't be thrilled at all this rain. Patience is in order.  Here is one of a short series of prints based on small acrylic originals painted on masonite board...from which  prints are made: The Horseneck Beach Series.   This time of year selections  from my  Instagram photo  collection may encourage you to customize your print selection. So too, will selections from my  Photo Gallery , or perhaps Painting Gallery .  For starters, pick a gloss paper or matte, a metal or acrylic-- even a canvas wrap. Then a size.
