Today was the first cloudy day we've had in two weeks. Sigh. I miss the sun already. But the light coming in my studio window was cool and called for light flowers. This was good because I had already started this painting last evening. Two of my close friends are leaving town to return to their winter home in Mexico. My husband and I will spend an evening with them tonight and I won't see them again until the spring. I'm feeling melancholy and winter feels like it's here already. The time we have on this earth is so short and the time we can spend with good friends is very precious. I'm posting this early so I can get myself over to spend more time with my friends. Enjoy your evening.

"Purple Haze"Private Commission






I'm back! A bit more rested, but still under a lot of pressure to complete work for an upcoming show in September. Despite the extra work, however, I have managed to complete a couple of commissions over the past few weeks. Here's one that someone requested (names withheld to insure privacy. The couple wanted grapes to go with the Hydrangeas. The setup was requested because it brings up feelings of a very special place to the couple.

I'll be moving my blog sometime during the next couple of months to Wordpress.com because of the options they offer on design. But don't worry...you'll continue to receive posts without interruption and I'll notify you of the new address, should you want to browse the new site once it's up and running.
