More than Enough
36”x36” original acrylic on canvas
seaside tales
There are a handful of photographs I’ve seen that show pelicans mid-catch, many with a whole mouthful of small fish, his huge pouch overflowing with provision. But then I saw one that— like this painting, the fish was so huge that it stretched the back of his neck. I don’t know if that’s biting off more than you can chew, so to speak, but I see it as a beautiful picture of having more than enough.
Why go back for the little fish when you can pull up something this big? It may just go to show what happens when you believe for big things.
Three feet square, this piece matches the dimensions and color scheme of Legendary Love, shown here side by side.
