This is a painting of that moment of gathering, when the previous wave is starting to go out and the new wave is coming in. It is that place in time just before everything breaks loose.

At each end of a bay on Tortola, there is normally a point like this one. They are usually rocky and relatively immobile. They are the sentinels that keep watch over their beach.

This is a painting of the Brooklyn Bridge, as seen from the old Fulton Fish Market. I chose this scene because of the reflection of the bridge in the puddle. The more I looked at the wet areas around the puddle the more interested I became.
