"Split Creek" --- SOLD



I know this composition is very similar to the last one, but it's what drew me at each location. These are both from Century Ranch, a 2000+ acre ranch directly behind Enchanted Rock, in Texas.

I am back from my weekend paintout and will post a painting from it tomorrow! Be sure to check back. We had SUCH a great time. It is so wonderful when you find a group of friends who can support your art habit!!!

I'm off for a 3-day plein air paintout with Plein Air Austin. Should be lots of fun if the weather holds out. Back on Sunday!

"Polka Purple" --- SOLD



It's SO good to be painting again. Here are some flowers from my garden. My son likes to go outside and pull up all my flowers, but these were spared for some reason.

"Pepper Party" --- SOLD


"Bunch-O-Grapes" --- SOLD



I am just about back from vacation - picking up the dogs from my folk's house. We've had a wonderful time, but I am having major painting withdrawal! This is my last extra painting - from last week. Tomorrow I'll be back to it and will have a brand new painting!

"Ataulfo Mangos" --- SOLD



We are having a great time on our vacation. Another WEIRD coincidence on this one - bumped into a demo being given by Bob Rohm. This after running into Albert Handell in Sedona. I decided it must be because I pick such great places to take vacations! Right now we are at a cool little coffee shop in Fredericksburg, checking our email, and eating some surprisingly good veggie tacos - yum! Thanks for all the great comments ya'll!

"Tea Party" --- SOLD



I am going camping with my family for a few days. We're going to Enchanted Rock, for those of you who know Texas. Enchanted Rock is a huge, granite batholith (for those of you who know geology) - basically a big dome of rock. We like to camp there because it is often deserted in the middle of the week, and there is plenty of hiking with spectacular views. We like to sit around the campfire in the morning with our tea and read books, and hike in the afternoon. We may drive into Fredericksburg one day, and if so I can post an extra painting I have. If not, I'll be back to it on Thursday.

"Casual Oranges" --- SOLD



My son turned 2 today. We had a small, family party for him yesterday, and I was busy cleaning and cooking for it on Saturday. That's why I didn't post either of those days, in case you came and checked and saw nothing. Sorry about that - I'm back in business now.

I have to say, oranges are hard to paint. Ikes.
