"Central America - from the Decks of the Maasdam" February 6-13, 2010 As SusieQ traveled on the MS Maasdam (Holland American Line) from the her home port (Fort Lauderdale, Florida) to San Diego, California via the Panama Canal, she set up a painting station on the ship for anyone to add to a co-creative piece. The theme was the ever-changing landscape. As we cruised from Fort Lauderdale south and east to Oranjestad, Aruba, then through the Panama Canal and northward to Puerto Caldera, Costa Rica the painting developed. The finished product is here for your enjoyment. It was a wonderful, fun, relaxing environment in which to paint. Much of the piece was done on the Lido Deck by the pool. Other places I set up the "station" was in the lounge on the 12th deck forward and the aft outside pool area. It was a wonderful trip and I so enjoyed meeting so many fabulous people. The painting concluded after we left the port of Puerto Caldera. I had taken a shore excursion to visit the mid-level rainforest. Our guide shared that Costa Rica places much attention on sustainability and preservation. I believe 30 or more percent of the land is set aside for long term conservation. 26 painting participants (listed in order of participation): Carolyn Mann, Betw Frederick, Gordon Mcrae, V Kay Russell, N Gail Russell, Mike Boles, John Crawford, Len Schmitt, Marti Berger, Inge Berger, Chandras Sinaga, Ketut Wiiaya, Dennis McLeod, Donna McLeod, Phyllis Sawatzky, Nancy Hooper, Ken Sawatzky, Patsy Herder, Wally Herder, Marilyn Taylor, Enrique Gudelano, Frans Butarbutar, Joyce Carpenter, Kathy Johnson, Gaylin Luce, and Edward Lancaster, Jr. SusieQ's signature includes 26 dots, each representing an individual that contributed to the piece.
