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.

Tuscan View
I did this painting, 10 x 10, on a linen canvas with no underpainting. It is softer than usual and I like the look in person. Not sure it photos all that successfully
I think it looks absolutely gorgeous on my laptop, Aline. I really like it a lot: the colors are muted & lovely, the shapes (e.g. the foreground tree) are interesting, & my eye travels through the picture easily with lots to look at. Great sense of distance with the 'misty'hills in back. I think it's very successful. It IS different from your more dramatic landscapes but it is still excellent, I think. I know I'd be happy if I managed to produce it! MaryB
