Art is in the eye of the beholder and so too are the images that inspire. My work varies from painting, drawing , sculpting and photography. I get my inspiration from artists that I love, things that surround me, my family and my imagination.

My home town

 I thought I'd show you some photo's of the beautiful Gold Coast where I live.  Would you believe we don't get to the beach very often!  We played at the beach and then went to the park afterwards.

 The flags were up, but the surf was pretty big and parts were closed.
 Here is the skyline of  Surfers Paradise from Broadbeach.
 Many people were out walking along the beach.
 My daughter made her usual dribble sandcastle.

 While my husband and son kicked the soccer ball around.
 The care flight helicopter was patrolling along the beach due to the big surf.
 Ahh- we are so luck!

    Great shots Jen. I love how you have captured silhouettes against the sand and water. We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world. xx
