Mother Ocean

acrylic on skim board

My favorite towel for packing my art is yellow and white striped, so I thought I'd include it in this painting.

Pink Shell Mermaid

24 x 14 inches

acrylic on wood cabinet door

SOLD

Even the shells are reclaimed/recycled on this piece. I grabbed them before they were put into the trash by someone. This is one of my personal favorites.

I'm a full time self-taught recycled folk artist living in Myrtle Beach, SC. My work is collected internationally, and hangs in hotels and businesses.

My only artist's statement is “Oh, just whatever pleases." I hope my work is open - like the wide open spaces of my youth.

Contact me at drpeggythibodeau@gmail.com for pricing and purchase.

What does Sidewalk Chalk Prophet mean?

I once read about a woman seeing a message sprawled on a Paris sidewalk. It said, "The city of Paris is full of beautiful mysteries, and you are one of them." I never forgot that story. I began to think how wonderful it would be to spread love and joy by writing beautiful messages on sidewalks with chalk. That idea has evolved into the original poetry I often include on my art, and is the reason I call myself “The Sidewalk Chalk Prophet.”

The most an aritst can do through their work is say, "Let me show you what I have seen, what I have loved, and perhaps you will see it and love it too."
