You have a wonderful camera to take sure great closeups. Love the watercolors too!

They are amazingly strange creatures, and your paintings more than did their majesticness (word?) justice.

The sea is always a inspiration to me too! LOVE your seahorse sketches! I just finished a couple Basket Star designs from seeing a photo of this unusual kind of star fish photo from the Seattle Times. I googled them and Wowza, what a creature! Just check out the images online, so many tentacles in perfect artistic flow and all colors. Whew! Again, love your sea horses !!
