Shore Patrol by Peach McComb<\/p><\/div>\n

Referring to art as \u201cyoga for the mind\u201d, she says \u201cI practice yoga for physical flexibility and art for mental agility.\u201d<\/p>\n

In works such as Ginny\u2019s Front Porch the artist provides the viewer with a real sense of Southern Americana with the iconic flag floating in the breeze alongside hidden wicker chairs. Paintings like Shore Patrol move us from rural Tennessee to the summer shores in soft blues and whites.<\/p>\n

The works in McComb\u2019s suite seem to be themed in days of leisure, providing the art lover with a calm sense of beauty.<\/p>\n
