A Few More from the Road
Trees to and from Stockbridge were so very beautiful. I painted two when I got home. Finished just this morning. Ironic that today is very much overcast and wet like it was there, just considerably warmer. I am grateful! This will be the final chapter in this trip to the Berkshires, but am planning another trip in the fall.

Surrounded by the winter landscape, I was drawn to the old growth trees. Looking at them without their leaves gives insight into their shape, color, and texture. Evidence of good times and bad as they continue to grow.

My first time in New England was a hit! Visiting treasured family, monumental theaters, and a new landscape for me to explore. I am completely inspired.
Read MorePaintings from the Road
Don’t you love a road trip? Everything was new to us; absolutely exciting. Connecting with a new landscape on the road. I carry a mobile studio and paint every chance I get – when I am not knitting socks.
Read MoreComing to an End
Endings are nothing more than beginnings out of focus. I look forward to every December for lots of reasons. One of the most important things to do in December is take a look back. Then, decide where to go in the year to come. Do you do something similar? I just love to have a fresh new year to think about and plan for.

Since losing my FaceBook and Instagram social media accounts, I have had a lot of questions. Will the hacker hurt my reputation and/or business? How much time do I have to spend on “the fix?” Will I try to punish those who are responsible? How shall I move on? What platforms are in alignment with how I share my art? How do they treat their customers / investors? So far, I don’t have any answers. How do you get in alignment?

I’m still standing and painting. I was hacked on Facebook and permanently banned from their platforms, which includes Instagram. I have discovered that this is a nationwide problem. Facebook will not respond to me or anyone else. If you see questionable material on my pages, IT IS NOT ME.

Headed to Litchfield Beach to paint with the Ladies of the Traveling Paints! We immerse ourselves in the act of painting. Outside during the day and round the table at night. Fun, fun, fun!

Read MoreWhy does art matter to me?
From my very earliest days, I have been an artist, a mark maker, an observer, and most importantly – I share what I find. An artist communicates. Through film, dance, music, painting, sculpture, speech, etc. an artist can reflect the times in which they live. To that end, I am learning to use modern technology to communicate with my audience. I find myself surprised that I am enjoying the process. This blog has been very fun to use as a way of communication, and thank you very much for joining me. I am also learning to use video to communicate.

Good afternoon! Is it still Sunday? This is coming to you a little late, because Robert and I tried to learn how to do a video for you. It was easier than I thought to make it. Here are the results!
Read MoreBig Blue and Something New
The weather has been beautiful, and I have been painting.I have been painting animals on metal leaf for a couple of years now. I knew that a landscape would look great on this surface as well. These paintings are almost interactive. There are subtle changes that reflect their environment. Where they are placed and what light they receive give the paintings to chance to glow.

Hurricane Ian has interrupted my painting practice. I have painted some, but will wait to share at a more appropriate time. The beautiful Southeastern coast and its people are hurting.
