REMEMBERING VENICE BEACH OF THE 60S
OKAY, HERE'S YET ONE MORE SKETCH OF THE WAY IT WAS IN THE 60S, ANOTHER VIEW OF ONE OF THOSE LITTLE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BEACH TOWNS OF THE 1960S. I ALWAYS PLAY AN OLD "BEACH BOYS" LP WHILE TURNING THESE HEARTFELT WORKS OUT. SOMETIMES, IF I AM ON THE COAST, A GULL WILL FLY IN AND SET DOWN ON MY WORK DESK. I DO NOT USE EASELS UNLESS I AM ACTUALLY OUT ON THE BEACH TRYING TO DRUM UP A LITTLE BUSINESS BY SELLING A FEW SIMPLE SAILBOAT ON THE HORIZON WITH PALM TREES KIND OF PASTELS OR CHARCOAL SKETCHES. HOPE YOU LIKE THIS. YOU KNOW, YOU CAN MAKE A COPY OF IT, BLOW IT UP, FRAME IT AND HANG IT UP IN YOUR PAD.......................ROB
WISHING YOU A GREAT SUMMER OF 2009
ALL OF US BEACH LOVERS HEART SUMMERS. AND THIS MESSAGE IS FROM AMANDA MUNOZ. THANKS, AMANDA, FOR YOUR PERSONAL MESSAGE WRITTEN IN THE SANDS OF LONG BEACH. YES, A HAPPY SUMMER 2009 ON WHATEVER BEACH YOU CHOOSE TO CALL YOUR SUMMER GETAWAY...
