I plan to post current paintings on my blog site. I'm not much of a writer but I do love to paint. I do oils and pastels and I teach workshops. I plan to sometimes post demos and talk about how to create a painting as well.

View from the Ponte Vecchio is a finalist in the 29th Annual Art Competition for Artist Magazine!
Aline, this is gorgeous! I hope you win, I hope you win! If you'd lived back then, you'd have been hoisted on the shoulders of the first Impressionists & marched around the room, I think. Really! Your paintings are so seductively 'simple' yet convey so much detail. You can tell the time of day by the 'gold' in the atmosphere, you can hear the man oaring his boat, the reflections are all so perfect. Yet, when I look at your painting closely, it's a quick stroke here, a smudge, a few dabs there. Just amazing to see that you can be so 'spare' & so expressive at the same time, Aline. Your color harmony is always perfect, too. You're a magician! I really hope you win! L&K, MaryB
Mary...you make me feel so good...thank you. Hilda...I liked your lovely last painting and tried to comment but couldn't. Final is actually no longer a contest. It means you get mentioned...ah well...but thank you!!!
