Serenity
July 28, 2008
As a reward for saying at home whilst my husband toured Europe and the UK this past May, I decided I would purchase this painting of a beach scene. I found myself drawn to the colors and the shading thereof, by the artist, which looks to be J. Holmes. It is a bit hard to read the signature. It sits up a little higher on the wall, above three tiered keyboards. The upward tilt of my camera and my 5′4″ allowed me this slightly lopsided shot. I did so wish to share my joy in the colors that I shrugged my shoulders when I noticed it wasn’t straight-on.
I find it easy to gaze into the sand and imagine the sound of the surf. Perhaps I would enjoy a frozen drink and let the the ocean breeze cool me off. Those cabanas look as if their occupants are sleeping off their party, from the evening before.
