Sailing

My move to the Mediterranean was especially remarkable because I had previously lived in Southern California for many years and was no stranger to the spellbinding sunrises and sunsets. As stated and demonstrated by numerous preeminent painters, the light on the Cote d'Azur is no less than sumptuously seductive. It too is no wonder why such magnificent and international vessels port here. As a photographer and oil painter, my six month visit turned into a much longer stay. How could I turn from such heavenly beauty, especially while pursuing art studies? May the grace of the sun and this particular image I was blessed to take, with ship, shimmering sea and serene sky, forever send your spirit 'sailing'.
