As much as I love the other three seasons, there is something different about summer.  As in winter, everything slows down but at this time of year, you have the added bonus of warm sun and long days!  In her paintings and etchings, New York artist Isca Greenfield-Sanders captures the fleeting freedom of summer days and the carefree ways that come with them.

Even when you’re far from school age or having kids of school age, summer still somehow provides the mental break we all need.  It’s like a free pass to just enjoy life!  That slowing down gives our minds more time to absorb what’s happening around us and pay closer attention to the people in our world.  Aren’t the best conversations to be had while floating on an inner tube?  In summer, we see the world through squinted eyes, so that everything is brighter and more perfect, a hazy, lazy feeling that Greenfield-Sanders captures through her work in the loveliest way.
