EXUMA first Diary Entry

Just a few days left of my Spring trip to Exuma the Bahamas my home away from home.
After a busy first week of meeting with local businesses to promote my paintings,
the second week was all about relaxing, recharging my creative spirit.

Walking along the calm shores of Stocking Island soaking up the blues of the water, the sky, together with the heat of the sun, reminds me of why I love Exuma so much

I had my favorite beach, 3 sisters all to myself again, I love painting 3 Sisters, the rocks, the pathway by the stone wall, every step giving me energy while calming me at the same time.

I spent a lot of time photographing new views of places I have walked before and one place I had never been before . The Atlantic side of St Francis Resort welcomed me with a roar of waves and few people on the beach, perfect for a first time walk. I cant wait to get home and start the challenge of painting those huge white crescents in the water, and the views of palm trees and islands in the distance.

Good thing I stocked up on paint before I left, so I can dive right into the blues with my paint brushes when I get home.
