Oh, elk, I know that feeling. Your mom was such an amazing artist. I think it is so wonderful that you have the beautiful gems that she created.
Beautiful, both the photograph and that special watercolor. And thanks for the link to find Buried Treasure!
beautiful! what a gem!
I love your mother's watercolor!...and it should be hung next to that photo...they compliment each other beautifully...
hello!! thank you for the welcome back!! i'm happy to be visiting again and what a beautiful photo and painting....lovely!
Both are beautiful images, ELK. So nice that you have your mother's art to remember her by.
These go together so well. Your Mum's picture is beautiful, it is so calming to look at.
Both the photograph and the watercolor are lovely and serene.
your mom has a gift for seeing light and dark the way you do (or vice versa).... beautiful images
A wonderful tribute to your talented mom who has clearly passed some of that on to her daughter. Lovely images.
Absolutely beautiful!! Both of them. In the landlocked Midwest-- how I would love to walk these sands!
I am LOVING your photos! Thanks for the kind words and welcome.
I agree with Oliag who said they compliment each other beautifully.
elk that is one beatiful watercolour.
gorgeous secret hide-away. there is sand and water, so i know i would be happy there.
your mother was an artist—why am i not surprised. like you, her art is beautiful, layered, full of depth and says so much.
Sublimely beautiful--both images. I would love to go to either place, so restful.
Hi-I came here through Georgia's blog and added you to my blogroll with hopes that you won't mind, of course. The serenity here is wonderful. Very calm. And graceful. I use use quite a bit of both.
Wow, I thought that was snow. What a wonderfully talented artist your mother was. It runs in the family!
I loved the first image. Reminds me of summer with the sea grasses. I long for summer - it is sooooo colder here. Thanks for the happy thoughts :)
elk, i honestly think that you are my favourite photographer. i love your work.... and now i see where all that artistic talent comes from. your mother.
that painting is beautiful! i actually saw your photo at georgia's first and thought it was snow!! but now i see it much better!
This is unbelievable! WOW! WOW!
WOW!
I'm such a sand and beach and dune lover....these are fabulous !
what a fun marriage of image and illustration. Plien air at it's heights!
ELk this is wonderful! It matches perfectly. You should frame it.
Your mother was quite a painter!
I love beach sand, but white is especially wonderful! I was in the Bahamas a couple of times and their beaches have a pinkish sand. sigh!
I love the painting of the beach by your mother, It must hold a spot dear in your heart. I really enjoy non commercial beaches. They provide tranquility with nature. Thanks for sharing your hidden gem.
Elk this is so beautiful. i love your mothers watercolor.

These are beautiful images. That sand art is lovely.
I have sorely and surely missed you. You steal my heart.
