Full moons and new moons are my favorite on Fripp because I love watching the extra high tides come in around me–it’s such a magical feeling to feel as though you are floating in the marsh.  And then to catch moonrises and sunsets over the full marsh and  beach is icing on the cake.  Here’s […]

High tide on the marsh is my favorite! And when it coincides with sunrise or sunset, it’s the best! Here’s a look across Marsh Dunes Road during one of the magical moments. Such a treat to witness this lowcountry magic!

A little painting of my hood back home in Maine at sunset. As many of you know, the Portland Observatory is my favorite Portland landmark the way it stands tall overlooking the city, the bay and beyond.

I love popping into Low Country Cider Co. & Superior Coffee not only because I love their oat milk lattes, but I also because I love their patio! Just look at these orange umbrellas and blue tables. So inviting. Come on, let’s enjoy a cup of joe!

Painting the Lowcountry is so different from painting the Maine coast. The shores are so different–it’s all sand and marsh down here and mostly rocky ledges and pine trees at home. Today I decided to let myself get lost in the familiar which is the rugged island coastline. So fun. I love the colors of […]

There are a few similarities between the South Carolina Lowcountry and the Maine coast … lots of beauty, islands, water, wonderful wildlife and in places the marsh looks the same.

I love all sunsets, but when there are some floating clouds that call for a dramatic end to the day, that is my favorite! I have witnessed a few of them over the marsh on Fiddler’s Ridge recently and it’s pure magic. At this time of year we can watch them right from the kitchen […]

I walk down to the neighborhood crab shack just about every day. I love going out on the dock to take in the magic of the marsh and the tides. When there is water in the creek the reflections of the sky are so cool. This was from a sunset outing the other day that […]

I’ve been sharing some of my photos with my brother and we decided to do another Fripp beach sunrise for this weeks sibling set. It’s fun to get lost in the colors of the beach at sunrise … I love the cools and the warms of the light coming across the water, beach and sand […]

I’m surrounded by marsh down here in the Lowcountry and I love it. It’s so much fun to watch the tides and wildlife come and go. And of course the colors and reflections are different in each passing moment. The beauty of nature never gets old, does it?
