I painted this on a little bay of Lake Ontario in late July. I was so happy...but suddenly one of the coils in my Volvo engine exploded taking all 6 cylinders with it. @Volvo I had it towed from Fair Haven to Syracuse Volvo.

"Phantom Kiss over Frenchman's Bay" - oil on canvas. I painted this after I encountered a Harbor Dolphin as I paddled my inflatable kayak. I was a little alarmed with I saw the fin, but what a sweetie. An adolescent. We stayed together for about an hour. #love .

When I write music I "listen"l for what people need, and create something special to uplift and surprise their emotions. I use music to get to know people and make a deeper connection. Music is a magic way of keeping in touch.

When you paint for children you have to draw differently, using soft, clear colors and gentle emotions. Young children are super- sensitive and impressionable. They love art. Art makes sense to children. They are not ready for reality...they like high soft, melodious sounds too.
