Speaker 2
Oh I'm moving down in two years. I can't wait for the beautiful summers.
Speaker 1
You'll love it! Have you scoped out a particular city or region in Florida?
Speaker 2
Southern Florida looks like fun, but anywhere on the east coast looks lovely. What area are you in?
Speaker 1
I'm near Sarasota, on the gulf coast. I've found that the vibe is much more relaxed on the gulf than on the Atlantic.
Speaker 2
Oh is that so? Is there a lot of fun things to do or places to go?
Speaker 1
Totally! There's something for everyone, though it's geared toward a more mature crowd. Lots of arts and cultural stuff, but also gorgeous, tranquil beaches and classy restaurants.
Speaker 2
Oh that sounds wonderful. Any places or activities you like to do with your daughter in particular?
Speaker 1
I enjoy taking her to the museums around here. It's so educational for her!
Speaker 2
That sounds perfect. I love all kinds of art and I would like that kind of atmosphere

Speaker 1
Have you ever been to an art museum?
Speaker 2
I do! Sometimes I find inspiration for my waterpainting by seeing some of the artwork at the museum.  How about you?
Speaker 1
I have. My daughter loves them as she wants to be come an artist one day. So I take her to see what other have done before her.
Speaker 2
It completely slipped my mind that you like going to museums, duh!  I am so happy they you are encouraging your daughter's passion for art.  Do you dabble in any art yourself?
Speaker 1
I try, but I am not very good at it. But we try to make art together because she loves it. How is that big water painting for your boss going? 
Speaker 2
It's been an interesting experience so far.  I start out really strong and thought I'd have it done in no time, then I hit a couple snags.  I'm getting back into it and I think I may be finished by Thursday (just in time for her deadline!)
Speaker 1
That is good. I am sure she will love it. You always were a great painter. 
Speaker 2
That is so kind of you to say.  I can be pretty hard on my work, but you and others have always been so encouraging. I appreciate it! 
Speaker 1
We should get together one day and you can look at my daughters work and tell me what you think. She doesn't believe me when I say she is good. She tells me your mom you have to say that..lol Kids.
Speaker 2
LOL.  The picture you shared of her art project was pretty impressive.  If that was any indication of her work, I am sure it's really fantastic. Is she thinking about studying are in college? 
Speaker 1
She wants to, but is scared her work isn't good enough. She posted a few of her stuff online for sale and they were all brought. A couple even gave more then she asked saying her price was to low for something so awesome.
Speaker 2
Wow!  That's pretty impressive.  Well, if she is thinking about college, I might be able to put in a good word.  My friend is a benefactor of the art department at State U!

I was busy sorting out the art project but at least I'm half done now! I'm taking a break and just want to empty my mind haha. How was your daughter doing by the way?
Speaker 1
She's doing great! We went to the Dali museum today for the first time. It is very inspiring. You'll have to check it out when you move here!
Speaker 2
Oh I never heard of the Dali museum, what does it have? And I'm glad you had a great time!
Speaker 1
It has a permanent collection of over 2,400 of Salvador Dali's works. It also has random objects from his life and information about his history. There is a free Dali Museum App! You should get it!
Speaker 2
Woah sounds exciting! I will get the app for sure and definitely go there. And did the visit inspire you to make any art pieces?
Speaker 1
Yes! I started a surreal painting of a monitor melting over someone's face as they stare into a dark abyss.
Speaker 2
Haha that's dark and funny at the same time, I love your sense of humor! Do you have any other works with similar themes?
Speaker 1
I have an entire deviantart profile with abstract and psychedelic digital art and also a redbubble with many prints available for purchase! 
Speaker 2
That's mad cool! I'll definitely purchase some to support you when I get some money!

Speaker 1
Are you feeling inspired to start any new watercolors after you finish the project for your boss?
Speaker 2
Yea, I was thinking of doing something Tropical. Warm uc
Speaker 1
I like that idea, have you done something tropical before?
Speaker 2
Not really. But who the painter who did all that work in Tahiti with the native people? I just love the reds and the purples and the vibrance
Speaker 1
I am not sure, I would have to look it up. Can I see your new work once it is done?
Speaker 2
Of course. You know the State University that I worked with once? Well one of the professors likes one my test pieces. He wants to show it off in a show. But with my move, I don't have time to produce.
Speaker 1
Well are you able to send him one of your test pieces that you have done previously?
Speaker 2
I mean I did, but there's no more. Like three are half done. I'm like Picasso on day one of his blue period. You know genius is coming but when? Anyways, yes you can see the work. It might be on display at the university.
Speaker 1
Neat, you will have to let me know when it will be on display! Do you know exactly where in Florida you will be moving?
Speaker 2
My top two - south Florida and the panhandle - just had major hurricanes so that spooked me. That leaves Orlando north to Jacksonville. Well, and the Tampa area -Clearwater's nice. Have you been?
Speaker 1
Yes, I have actually been to Clearwater. It was really nice but the traffic while I was there was insane!
Speaker 2
You know that big road going right to the beach. It's like two lanes of hell every time I go. But once you're on the beach, it's great. Imagine a commute! I'll be painting on the beach, I think. Yea, Clearwater Beach it is, I think. Thank you.
