Artist's narrative: Immersed in pre-composition wonder, an apparition slipped through the cerebral shadows tingling my senses in mystical motion and magnetic energy. Passion swamped the orderly palette of my mind, dancing, teasing and wistfully exposing the sensual hue of creative expression. With slow, deliberate strokes, colors merged and surrendered, entangling together in euphoric anticipation. 

Artist's narrative: Calypso surfaced from the emerald depths about twenty feet off our port. We drifted downwind groov'n to Marley and sharing our mutual love of the sea. I invited him to stay for Happy Hour, but he declined, said he was headed for Baja, breached and slapped his magnificent tail 'good-bye'. Calypso's outward expression of grace mirrored the inward harmony of his soul.
