Last week my husband and I went on our annual vacation to a warm place, this time to Grand Cayman.  I took a small watercolor kit and had big painting plans.  At first I warmed up by capturing the amazing colors in the sky, water, and sand.

While sitting by the pool, I made this small painting of the palms and Seven Mile Beach.

When the sun was too hot in the afternoon, I painted in the courtyard by the turtle pond.

After an exhausting day of painting, I had to take a nap.  The next day I started to relax, took a walk on the beach, and did a little reading.  Somehow my painting ambition evaporated in the sun, but I filled my eyes with Caribbean colors for future paintings.
