SUNFLOWERS IN PROVENCE


This recently completed oil was from a close up of a photograph of a whole field of sunflowers.
Painting has taken a back seat for now, as I cannot get to my studio due to mold containment!
A leak in a water line in our refrigerator caused major damage to kitchen cabinets and counter tops and the need for mold decontamination. It's been going on for almost a week.......

On a Personal Note


We had a wedding in our family last week!
Here I am with our daughter and my granddaughter
(the beautiful bride) dancing to "Play that Funky Music, White Boy"....but with dignity and grace - right?

Painting "Lake Tahoe"


This photo was taken while I was working on "Lake Tahoe" a few months ago.
I paint every week with ten or twelve other artists in a workshop headed by Tom Proctor. Having other painters to bounce ideas off of is helpful. It also allow us to learn from others and correct our mistakes!
