About This Image

I think the Georgia marshes were one of my big surprises as I explored the Georgia coast on my short visit to the area. In fact, I spent at least an hour taking photos of the saltwater marshes that lie between Tybee Island and Savannah. I had little experience with the Atlantic coast before this visit and was truly amazed at this landscape.

The Georgia marshes, and others like it along the coastal islands, form, from what I’ve read, a sort of natural filtration system between the land and sea. And the barrier islands, like Tybee, protect the marshes. The plants that grow in this ecosystem are to varying degrees salt tolerant because the boggy soil does include sea water.

The plant types change as you approach different types of water which actually accounts for the golden grasses versus green in this photo. The green ones are nearer to the fresh water of Lazaretto Creek. It’s amazing to me how precise the lines are between those boundaries almost as if someone had planted a border garden against the golden grasses.

But it was more than a science lesson that made this place special, the Georgia marshes are very much a living place. There was a true sense of nature throughout the landscape. When I look at this print, I can still hear the songs of the insects in those grasses greeting the new day.

I did spend a good deal of time there, but it was the first few pictures I took of the sun lighting up the Georgia marshes as day broke that are my favorite. The misty air and that light were just an unforgettable combination, you know? There’s almost a sense of the primordial earth as you gaze into those distant marshes.

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
