When Michelle and I first moved to Wilmington, NC, we found our first home on the edge of Greenville Marsh, overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway. The views were amazing! Those picture windows never disappointed and very often produced wonderful surprises. Not until I lived on the edge of the marsh did I truly understand the seasonal cycle of the sunrises, ebb and flow of the tides, schedules of the marsh fowl and the cruising vessel activities of Intracoastal Waterway. In any given moment, the scene could change from that of pure natural surroundings to one of an introduction to an iconic fishing vessel. A boat with the character and colors that can only be earned by years of salty air and sea spray is what comes from this artist’s interactions in Calabash Style ~ where land meets sea and sea captains pursue their next destination of a promising catch.
