Under Sail

A small painting which I had fun designing and painting the sailors. I really don't know boats but had fun.

Painting demo...broken egg

I demoed this still life of a broken egg this morning

Italian Cafe

Doing a bunch of pastels...a new one

Horse drawn carriage demo

My current class is quite advanced, so my demo Monday morning was on 8 x 8 inch canvas of this image. I was not sure I'd pull it off....but I wanted to make it about design (the original photo has much more in it) and working with mass and shape...especially simplifying the more complicated images.

Backview nude

Back to pastels in my drawing group. I am thrilled to be asked to show my pastels in the Blue Heron Gallery in Wellfleet, Mass. Need to create a lot by May!

Horses, Mackinaw Island

The second in my paintings for Mackinaw Island. There are no cars on this island but a lot of horses.

Spring Harbor Mackinaw Island

After being away and then nursing a bad cold, finally got into my studio. I was able to complete my first painting for my new gallery on Mackinaw Island in Michigan.
