THETAWAVES :: Painting Daily


Seascapes may not be considered "art" by the powers that be in the art world, but I think it's like playing the classics for a musician - how can you keep a pianist from playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata? It may even take a lifetime to get it right, but someone who is obsessed will never give up. The devotion that it takes humbles the spirit and transforms the ego into submission to the beauty of the planet...and to a greater appreciation for the great talent of the past.

This seascape was just rocks and water until I added the pelicans, then it came suddenly to life. I call this one "East of the Sun." See more pelicans below, and on
