Newest Vieques Island Paintings

I am finally painting again after months of not painting. It took two close friends of 33 plus years to come to Vieques and really get on my case! And they did. I had become very involved in beading jewelery for months and months, and months and months.Perhaps thats what I needed as it was a mindless obsession! Now I will put the same energy into painting. i have switched painting mediums and am now working in acrylic and it is like I am learning to paint again. Of course it does not help that I have not lifted a paint brush since last year. Soon I will start my Annual Chincoteague Island Pony Poster and eventually start painting the wild horses of Vieques Island.

This top painting is Punta Arenas on Vieques Island. The next painting is of Sun Bay on Vieques Island.

Paintings in progress..


My current art studio is a spare bedroom, the due to the heat of the summer. The third floor studio was without air conditioning, so I was spending all my time in the ocean. Now I am painting almost daily.

Vieques Island Waves

This is one of the recent wave paintings I have completed. The inspiration of living on the ocean in Vieques. Puerto Rico has been incredible. Looking out my studio to see the ocean, while I am able to create has been hard to paint anything but seascapes.

Soon I will have some of the paintings I am working on... showing different stages... on the blog. The Poster painting I create for Chincoteague Island's Annual pony swim and roundup is soon to be revealed. I have been painting an annual painting since 1985, which many customers still collect. My painting inspiration for Chincoteague is still there and probably always will be as 28 years of my life has been there.
