I took a break from painting to walk on the nearby walking trails. I love the solitude of a quiet forest, and was trying to capture that with these pictures... Mmmmmmm, barkiness


Here are a bunch of paintings I'm working on...

This is from a picture I took in Florence, Italy

My friend Karin's cat Kennedy always seems to have the perfect pose to convey bliss. Click here to see more of her gorgeous pictures!

This is my first wash, can you tell? At this stage I often wonder if I'll be able to pull this one off. Looks scary!

Almost done, letting this one rest a bit. Sometimes I know a painting needs something, but I'm not sure what, so I just put it away. Then I can look at it with fresh eyes in a few days.
