Sunday pasta sauce

I have always wanted to make my own pasta sauce. No clue... If I had the kind of life where I choose...today was difficult, tomorrow will be better. Time won't leave me as I am.

Windows

My first free lance drawing is one of my earliest childhood memories. I drew Quick Draw McGraw inside of my Mum's lampshade. She did not see the resemblance, I saw my room. Just painted these geraniums in a window box, didn't have a plan in mind. I love window boxes.

Back to the studio

No more distractions no matter how the sense of urgency pulls me away. My mother used to mention how much she loved The Rose of Sharon. Her Mother had this flowering tree at the homestead in Sharon, PA. This is for you Mum. Tulip for me.

Dublin

I really need to see a street flower vendor, sunshine and warm air. It was a challenging day, we all have to muddle through them now and then.

Lighthouse

A old watercolor of the Lighthouse at Presque Isle State Park in PA. An experimental use of two new watercolor tubes, peacock and opera. Loved the names and the pop they can give a painting.

Sunrise sunset

I was in an experimental mood the day I painted this. I had not done a palet knife painting in a long time. Forgot how much fun it is to do, love the mess too. It is so easy to get into a painting rut, your brain is to weary to switch into the on position. Vibrant color and thick paint in a not your typical mood worked for me.

Go fly a kite

March 1. The sun is shining, hope is in the air. I painted this tiny card to remember how soon spring will here and the kites will start flying on Presque Isle. It is a wonder to experience. The colors will make your day.
