Margaux

Painting this little French girl was so much fun, her curiosity was balance by her desire to just take in the beautiful garden she found herself in

Painting sunsets in Mexico

No, I'm not in Mexico. Wish I were on that beach again watching this sunset with my sister. Today I painted 'Goodnight Sun' a 40 by 60 oil of a sunset on the Mexican Rivera. I love to put large globs of paint in strategic places on the composition.

i LOVE FALL DAYS

I love to paint on beautiful fall days.  I love the color and the smell.  The crisp morning aire turning nature into a painters palette of color.  I love walking without getting too hot and fire pit chats. Fall weddings for tell the warm cosy nests of winter. Fall streams sparkle with life. I will paint or sketch everyday this fall and savor its harvest, preserving it for all eternity.
