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.

Peacham Plein Airs
Toward West Barnet 12 x 16 oil on canvas
Old Truck 9 x 12 oil on canvas
I discovered a beautiful farm with a 180 degree view in Peacham and had a great time painting there.
You and I have some things in common--our name and our alma mater. . . And painting. I graduated from Cornell in 1962 as a govt major and ended up practicing law, despite love of drawing and painting. Before moving to NH in 1981, I felt alone as an Aline in the universe, so when I took up painting ten years ago, it seemed safe to sign my paintings "Aline". (My last name got attached to me by marriage to a guy I have long since divorced.). I started a blog only a few years after my plunge into this new "career" and called it "A Painters Progress." My blog is a lot of writing, includes wips etc. my website is as you see below a title that is simple and descriptive but again excludes the surname.
So I have felt connected to you vaguely, but now that I know you were at Cornell, the connection seems stronger. I hope I will someday get to meet you. Perhaps at the Center for the Arts in New London. I have two paintings accepted in the regional show.

Wow Aline...we are a rare breed for sure though when I moved closer to Montreal I started meeting many Alines. I would love to meet you one day as we are not at all far apart! I am in White River Jct, VT. I see you are in Manchester. I enjoyed seeing your work. I loved Cornell but I can't say much of my sense of art came from them...it was all abstraction in the 70's. Thanks for letting me know about you. Hope to meet you
Love the two!! The farm is outstanding Aline!
