Marsh Scene from Pawleys Island Posh

Julia Ryan Marsh Painting

I met Julia way back in 2011 (that is forever in blog friend years) when I was on vacation in Pawleys Island. I had started reading her blog and was obsessed with the pictures she took of her kiddos. She took our first (and only) professional pictures of F at the beach.




I also admired her home in Pawleys  and how absolutely beautiful it was. One of the things that caught my eye was her painting of a Marsh scene which happened to be her own original artwork.
Julia's home in PI

How beautiful would this be  hanging in my home? I would have a hard time picking out where to display it because I would want to show it off downstairs but it would be so relaxing to have in our bedroom.
Two of these side by side would be killer in F's big boy room....

Right?

Or just one in my entry hallway. Decisions decisions!

Here are a few pics (photo overload) of the Pawleys Island Marsh from our trips over the years. Stunning right?!

And the reason I love the Marsh AKA Pawleys Creek so much..........

The house we have rented for years is on the beach and the creek. I have spent countless summers playing in the plough "pluff" mud, crabbing, floating, kayaking..and just enjoying this extra bonus of the beach! This is so wonderful when you have kids because it allows endless opportunities for exploring.

The dock. I have been playing on this guy for 26+ years!

This place is so special to me so I really think I need one of Julia's marsh paintings in my home. What do you think?
