The Purples


sold

I spotted this couple in San Francisco when I was there last. They were loaded down with bags, probably coming from the farmers market. I adore their purple shirts in slightly different shades, so I call them Mr. & Mrs. Purple.

Below are some photos from my recent Maine workshop/vacation (see more photos on Facebook). Maine is a special place, and I had a special group of kids. I won't say special in what way ... we'll just leave it at special. : ) But they did work hard, were reasonably behaved, and ended up doing some pretty kick-ass paintings, so I guess all-in-all this workshop was a success.


Here you can see how silly they are. PS. This was not the day we had basil gimlets delivered, believe it or not. And yes, that really happened. And yes, it was freakin' awesome!

The Purples is a wonderful painting. Movement, color, light, everything about it.
