Day 20 - Back to the beach

Day 20 already.  January is flying by.  I like that because I really am a Florida girl at heart and don't care much for the cold. 

Today's painting takes me back to the beach.  My model is a sculpture of a sea turtle popping out of its egg.  Many years ago now, I was on the beach when tiny leather back turtles were being released.  They had been raised in a marine lab, to give them a better chance of survival.  They are amazing little creatures to watch as they made their way to the water.

There's a winter storm watch out for tomorrow.  Time to head south!!

Thanks for stopping by.  Hope to see you tomorrow!
