this is why i paint…

 Hello Regina, I wanted to let you know that although I will never be able to afford your wonderful artwork, your "Tropical skiff" truely speaks to me. It is absolutely beautiful. I am a marine biologist and my husband is a commercial fishermen and we both sat and looked at your painting and said yes this is why we were drawn to the sea.
You have a wonderful gift.
Thank you for making this world a more beautiful place,
Ellen
