Wanna Go Sailing?

Jul 26, 2021

In honor of National Sailing Month, I present “Smooth Sailing.” Years ago, the Florida Lottery hired me to paint live at Sunfest Music Festival, in West Palm Beach. As a Bright Futures University of Florida graduate (scholarship program funded by the Florida lottery), I was asked to paint my interpretation of how my Bright Futures Scholarship impacted my future. The scholarship allowed me to focus on my studies and not have to worry about the financial burden of college; hence its title, “Smooth Sailing.” 

The added bonuses: I got to paint this RIGHT on the water, surrounded by about 30 live concerts all weekend… Needless to say, it was an AMAZING weekend! 

I hope you have been able to go sailing or boating this summer... we could all use some fun in the sun! 

XO,
