The beaches around Siesta Key are famous for their pristine beauty and white sand. We like to visit in the spring and shake some of the cold white stuff out of our bones. Once again my husband, Bill, likes to spend his days fishing and I enjoy spending my time painting, and reading, and painting, and reading, and painting ...well you get the picture! It works out quite well as we do something together, separately! There had been a terrible storm that beat against the windows all night and then, early in the morning, I was treated to this wonderful, peaceful scene. The air was wet and heavy and the clouds were thick and colorful in the early light. It's my favorite time to be out painting, when no one else is up and about and the quiet is almost deafening!
