Along the Way

Driving out to Edisto Island on our recent trip to the beach, I snapped many photos from inside the van as we sped along the two-lane highway. Blurry and compositionally flawed, they work wonderfully as starting points, jumping off places, for watercolor paintings. I am taking them as they come, in order, finding that something within, as inspiration. The view above is of the marshes as you approach the island, before the big bridge.
