Limited Edition of 25
Size: 40 x 27 in.
Canouan, Grenadine Islands is the setting for this iconic piece. A stately pelican sits perched on one of many rocks on Canouan Beliene (French for the whale of Canouan).
Peering into this piece, the viewer will find a reminders of Jimmy Buffett blended into the rocks: to the right is a guitar similar to what Jimmy Buffett liked to play. Searching to the left is Nadirah Shakoor, one of Jimmy's Reeferettes as she was singing Bubbles Up. Bubbles appear rising out of the water as the lyrics to one of Jimmy's last songs tell us:
"Bubbles up
They will point us towards home
No matter how deep or how far we roam
They will show you the surface
The plot and the purpose
So, when the journey gets long
Just know that you are loved
There is light up above
And joy, there's always enough
Bubbles up
Bubbles up"
Rock on, Jimmy.
