Plein air on a cold and rainy day today. This needs some studio work, but I’m feeling the mood!
Working on tree bark this afternoon. This shaggy old black walnut feels so majestic and stately!
Just when I was having a day of frustration at the easel, this note turns up on Facebook and reminds me why I do this. Thanks and hugs to Miss Erika...You remind me that paintings are all about our memories and our loved ones. 🥰❤️🤗
Spent the week teaching in Birmingham, Alabama. I love this pic, with the sculpture on the right and an industrial blast furnace on the left. This place — along with its wonderful people - fed both sides of my brain! . . . . . #slossfurnace #birminghamalabama
Made some progress with details on this one over the weekend. More to go...
Plein Air painting was luscious today - a silent forest, a warm sun, and snow dusting off the branches like twinkly fairy dust.
