These photos were shot at the beginning of the first hour but the party had not quite yet started.. It was packed. Just about everyone was there.

“Queen Of Coconut Grove” my 2nd peacock . I was fortunate to have had a second sponsor Pat Sessions and Family for the benefit of the Village Council inspired my vision for this imagery. He asked me to paint Main Hwy, the historic playhouse, Charles Street where the first Bahamian villagers settled in the late 1800’s , Greenstreets restaurant, Commodore Plaza down to the Post office and LuLus restaurant on the far right corner. Grovites who live here love Coconut Grove. We live outdoors and bicycle, sail and stroll our neighborhoods.. So putting the local “Peacocks” in town amongst the gardens that grow profusely here is my way of showing how much many of love Coconut Grove.
