Today's color exploration. We'll see where it goes tomorrow....have to sleep on it!

                                                                                                                   36 x 48

A hint of a project I'm working on! "Anno Domini- Winter" printed on canvas, put on stretcher bars and done very large! It looks awesome in person! I'll update you in a bit with more info! Cheers!

Shout out to the excellent team I work with at Arts District Imageworks!

I have the good fortune to have moved in next door to my scanners! I used them for some time and upon a visit I realized the space next to them had become available. I have extremely high standards for my giclee prints and they do a superb job! Not only that, they are superb people and I love working with them. I have lots of complicated requests at times and they always figure out a solution. I'm not a technical person but I know how I want my colors to look and I know how I want my art to be represented. So after experimenting with various papers and various kinds of scans, we have found the right combination to really knock my work out of the ball park. Here are some photos of what they do. Love them, thank's guys!! Cheers!

How things often look when I start out. I never know where it will end up! I could NOT have predicted where it did!!

Here is an example of what's underneath a painting! When "this" becomes "that"! Cheers!

Here's a fun "progression report"! I like to look back on my photographs and see how things transpired, thought you might like to see too!

This painting is the scrapings off of another. They blend to make the softest colors, love these!

Been working on this smaller flag. Sometimes the small flags are studies for larger ones.

Top of the to do list before the blizzard hit, yes, the blizzard in mid APRIL!! Get to the Carter Ave. Frame Shop! They do a great job!!

Every day, a new experiment in color!

Think I'm due to paint one of these, it's been awhile! These are fun to do!

Thank you to the wonderful designers who work magic with my art!

This project is going to be a fun one! Can't wait to see it!! Cheers!

Today's journey in color :-)

                                                                                                                  40 x 60

The winter weather is definitely affecting my color choice!

And so it begins....Time to change out the galleries!

Time to change things up! Starting to think ahead to the next show which is Art-A-Whirl. It's on May 18-20. Time to take down some of the winter colors and get some more vibrant colors up. And time to assess what spots I have and what to fill them with. Decisions, decisions! I like doing this way ahead of time so I can "stew" on it a bit. So sorry if you happen to stop in and it looks like a tornado went thru! Cheers!

Happy First Birthday to my studio buddy Winston!!

Feeling Italian lately! Love painting the Italian flag!

                                                                                                                    40 x 60

The gray skies are making me paint BLUE!!

Having fun playing with tree bark colors today!

I know I always say this...but these are fun to do!

A girl has got to have some fun and gosh but these are fun to do! I never know how they are going to turn out and what the colors are going to do, so each one is always a fun adventure! Not the best photo as my overhead light reflects off it. I included some close -ups as the detail is fun. Cheers!
