Remember I mentioned some time ago that people mostly want me to paint things for them in a tropical theme...well, here is another one and I promise you that after this I will go onto new ideas. Actually I have something in the works that is the opposite of tropical. I'll save that for another day. Someone in the Parrothead club asked me to paint a small table for his wife. There were two Jimmy Buffett songs that she liked and wondered if I could incorporate one or both on the table. I was able to do both and it really turned out well. My favorite part is the top with the sunset.
The design was inspired by a postcard that I had from Hawaii. I have a box full of postcards that I save from trips or from friends and relatives travels. You never know when something in there may be useful. Sometimes I must sound like a pack rat with the things that I save, but it is all very organized and I only save things that I could use. I don't have boxes full of old Christmas lights or stacks of magazines. Although, I clip out the parts of magazines that can be used for future ideas. Hmm...it feels like I'm rambling tonight...sorry!
