  2. Fantastic grouping and theme song! Makes me want to grab a surfboard, put down the top and hit the beach. Only problem is I can't surf, don't have a convertible and it's still really cold here in New England...

  10. Karin, You seem to have captured people from every possible angle! You never know who is lurking behind that camera! You made me feel like a real slacker, I don't think I have put out that much art in the last year! Very, very enjoyable, I'm off to the beach in the morning. Thank You

  12. LOVE the Beach Series! The music really puts 'cha back in that Surfer Girl state of mind. Was happy to see that the majority of the beach bunnies are a little older and perhaps not quite as "Gidget-like" as they once were. Moondoggie" is holding his own as well. It sort of takes the danger out of going to the beach but leaves in all the fun!

  24. This was the most entertaining presentation of a collection of work I have seen. It was fun, humorous, and real. I felt like I knew most of the people in the beach scenes. The music was perfect. Great!! And of course so is the body of work.

  25. Stunning, to use an overused word.
    I particularly like the nocturne with the moon shining through and the long horizontal one with the white umbrellas and the people all sitting on the beach. The paint handling is fantastic and they aren't all THIN! Thank YOU, Karin!
