"Sunny Days' at The Plaid Peacock

May 1st marks a momentous annual event here in Texas. Pool season opens. The sun is out, most days, and the water is freezing, but the rays of summer are on the horizon. Pool-time is fun, fleshy, and fruity. I must echo the Weepies as "I was made for sunny days, I made due with grey, but I didn't stay." Literally, on the Decadence-N-decay Art wall at The Plaid Peacock, I swapped out dark shades and black frames, for light hues with white frames. 

All in favor of "Sunny Days!?" This is my abstract expressionist landscape interpretation of summertime. Representations of camping, swimming, lounging, cloud gazing, hiking, gardening, and really, anything along the lines of, 
"Summertime...and the living's easy" -Sublime.

Fruit is a summertime staple, and our treat standard pool food. Pool-side also brings out the sweet & salty of the bare-it-all-bikini clad flesh feast. This seasons cravings begin with this bronzed-blushing-beauty. Perhaps the first pear-shape you will see this season, but certainly not the last.
