Water Works

Wow! This is just mesmerizing and perfect for a hot, summer Monday. Fantastic water graphics found in a Japanese Mall. Those are some water jets with precision.

Another thing that required tremendous precision and that I found mesmerizing was watching the Fourth of July Fireworks all coordinated to various musical pieces on the East River in New York. Although we are typically down on the VA side of the Potomac watching the fireworks there and have been for the last 22 years, this was the first year that my husband fully gave over the tradition to our older son. It has just become too difficult to park and unload gear, making it not as comfortable as it had been. Piers commanded a large crowd of his college friends and they had a lot of fun.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
