How I love being an artist ! I sketched this sailboat where she was in for repairs at a yard down in Cape May, New Jersey, yet loved the look of these houses on the water. So I re-sketched the boat to be across from the houses and closer to the water (where it would never be in real life), and made everything into one painting. “Boat Repair” is with a Private Collector on Long Beach Island.

Down at Beach Haven we learned at a very young age to sail sneakboxes and race around Mordecai Island. If a Skipper or Skipperette could sail a tricky, tippy sneakbox, he or she was ready to graduate on to Comets, Lightnings, E-scows, and could definitely handle a Catboat. This transparent watercolor of Catboats Sailing was my first. I was commissioned to do two more “just like it,” but of course each was a little different – all had catboats, blue sky with white clouds and blue water with whitecaps. I wanted the viewer to feel the wind.

These were small boats racing in the Caribbean – I loved what the wind and water were doing and painted them.
