What would Ponce De Leon have seen five hundred years ago when he set foot in La Florida? He would have seen
island hammocks along the Intracoastal Waterway just as we see today. These marshy hammocks have mangroves, palms,
lush foliage, and abundant wildlife. Waters run with the tides from the ocean in these low coastal areas. We still
enjoy this cool palette of tranquility. 16 x 20" original oil.
