1st Place Win in the contest… GLIMPSE OF NATURE IN THE BIG CITY, 05/24/2022, Members Participating: 116, Images Submitted: 199
1st Place Win in the DRAW WITH ME HALF A MONTH CONTEST THEME SPRING TIM... contest, 05/17/2021
This is a mixed media painting of the Sarasota Florida skyline at sunrise with a girl holding spring flowers including hibiscus , roses, daisies, and with splashes of pink bougainvilleas as a backdrop. Palm trees, hibiscus bushes, bougainvillea, poinciana, and other blooming bushes and trees line the banks.
The painting is inspired by Yolanda’s painting for the Positive Energy Spring challenge contest. I incorporated the girl from Yolanda’s painting with alterations of hair, colors, blush, adding arms, hands holding the bouquet, and of course the rest is Sarasota instead of New York. I used mixed media of pen and ink, watercolor, paint sprayer, paint splashes, and leaf templates.

I love this photo and it has a personal meaning. I was born and raised in Gulfport, Florida, just the other side of the bay from Sarasota. The Sunshine Skyway was being built as I grew up. We used to have to travel a long way to get to Sarasota. Your photo brings back memories.
Gary F Richards replied:
Kathleen, thank you so much for your kind words and support! I was glad you shared your childhood memory of Sarasota! We lived there and Bradenton the last10 years. Now 1 hour south in Punta Gorda.
