A Word From Anne

This cheerful watercolor painting combines blue, yellow, and orange colors to create a dancing, impressionistic landscape.

The semi-abstract landscape (or seascape) design lets your eye wander in the vibrant orange and yellow ground in the bottom half and then soar up into the sky in the blue and yellow top half.

The more intense blue and yellow shapes in the sky mimic the sight of birds on the wing. It's as if the colors and the sky itself are swirling, flying, turning with pleasure in the light of a new day.

One glance after you get up will set your day's dial at "happiness" and remind you "it's going to be a good day!"

That makes it the perfect image to bring a smile to your face - and just right for any room in your home or office. So bring that feel good vibe into your days and make every day dance with all the pleasure of being alive.
