Been busy
around here lately – or at least a few things going on. Basically, artist happy
moments!
First, I
received a request for an art swap that ended up with the Morning Fox heading off
to Easton MD where I know he will be very happy assuming he doesn’t tangle with
the resident pooch! In return, he had my artist friend, Kathie Rogers (link to her website), send her
beautiful Goldfinch and Hydrangea painting that I will always cherish. Art
is so wonderful, it’s hard to stop staring at it and it is such a great
reminder of fun times together.

Secondly, out
of the blue one of my favorite paintings sold - Window in Paris – now located
in Chicago, just in time to warm up the place before winter sets in. I just love when someone goes through art on
DailyPaintworks and picks ME! Secretly,
I wish I knew how they go about it. . . .

Lastly, I took
a weekend workshop from an amazing artist -- Lisa Daria. Will blog about it tomorrow. Lots of practice paintings, drills and new
ways to approach a painting. Considerably more abstract than my normal style –
if I have a style???? I am also going to try and incorporate some of
her “lessons to live by” to help make time to paint and keep motivated. Her daily paintings are here
Enjoy - life
is joy we make one moment at a time,
