Walk by the Water

Acrylic on Canvas, 5"x7"

What colors do you think of when you think of summer? For me, the heat softens everything and I like the soft blues, greens and blue greens. I think of the water and sky colors and here in Florida add lots of greens. Some people think of summer in terms of hot colors like reds and yellows. If you attend the Artist Colony Artwalk tonight, you'll get to see many variations of the Colors of Summer.

Colors of Summer is the theme for tonight's Last Wednesday Art Walk at the Artist Colony at the Esplanade, on Marco Island from 5-8 p.m. There'll be new art work to view, favorites to choose, an great music, live in the galleries, and some good art talk. In addition, if yo visit all three galleries your punch card will get you some great treats from the other Esplanade merchants!

Tara's Steak and Lobster House offers a free glass of wine, and CJ's Bayside offers 20% off their dinner specials on Art Walk nights. Starbucks, Stone Cold Creamery, Tycoon Gallery and Ricks Island Salon have joined in the fun. To see what each of them are offering, you'll have to come along.

No, it's not the last Art Walk, just held the Last Wednesday of every month. If you've been coming from January, you know that it happens every month -- on the Last Wednesday. You can put it on your calendar now for next month if you like. Yes, Last Wednesday of every month! Hope to see you there.
