Having dipped our toes in the shores of several different Caribbean islands, I began to feel that I was really developing my sea legs. At least I thought that I had. For many years now, much of my spare time is often spent exploring the www, and traveling, albeit virtually, to a new and different […]
St. John is a unique Caribbean experience. Given that 2/3 of this Caribbean island is reserved as a National Park, there is no other island we have found quite like it. No mega-development here. No concrete high-rise timeshares, no fast-food, no traffic snarls. Nothing but pure, unadulterated natural beauty. And if you can get there, […]

As we have traveled throughout the Caribbean, and met with countless numbers of artists, we often ask where they draw their inspiration from. Almost unanimously they tell us that they selected this life in the tropics, not only for its enviable climate, but because the calming colors are an inspiration to their artist’s spirit. We […]
After the week that was, we’re definitely needing some time away from the headlines. We continue to remember those touched by the tragedies in Boston this past week, and pray for healing of both the body and spirit. Stepping back from the horrific scenes, here’s a look back at some interesting blog postings we found […]

We save you the daily grind, and we’ve done all the heavy lifting for you. Filtering through the many bloggers we follow, here’s some interesting site postings we […]
At My Island Art we are uber excited today to formally announce a new photographer to our fold, and to now make his works available to the great customers at My Island Art. Many of you know him by his frequent Facebook posts, and his twitter updates, and like us you’ve probably wondered, just how […]
