Painting Bliss

Started doing these little miniature paintings that are about 4 x 6 as I had very short windows of time to work recently and really enjoyed the immediate satisfaction I received from being able to see a painting evolve quicker than the larger canvases I usually work on. They sit on a little wooden easel that makes them easy to display and move around too.

Snow Days!

Even though my dogs and I are all enjoying this mild winter break, there is nothing quite like fresh snow to play in. So in honor of the fact that Isla (Copperluna Three Cheers) is in her first big show this weekend I wanted to share a picture of her at play not too long ago in the depth of winter. Can hardly wait to see her all spiffed up for the show!
