Turbulence

This painting was created from a wooden replica of the old Clipper Ship, "The Flying Cloud" built by Donald McKay as it struggles through the roughest seas the sun breaks through to restore hope to the weary sailors.

PORTRAITS ANYWAY YOU CHOOSE!

Would you like to reside in a palace? Swing on a star? Sit on a sunlit beach?

How does a sweet embrace from your best friend or pet sound from a very special place in your garden?

Lost loved ones can reunite, foreign cars and monuments could be at your feet,

memories revived, smiles ignited and crafted

into an heirloom painting

in ways that might have never seemed possible!

Let me take you there!
