Something really cool is happening-I dive into a painting without much thought and angst and it comes out great! Maybe the years of practice are finally getting to connect it all together.....I am really feeling kind of free and easy. Nice! Now all I need is more space and time.....and more money
and a vintage car
and an old farmhouse with a barn studio
a kick ass wardrobe
five easels
a hot tub
a huge patio off my kitchen with vintage furniture
a lead role in a really great play..

I could go on and on..
but I am pretty much satisfied with where I am

didn't see that coming, did you!

I had the most fun doing these for The League of Catholic Womens 100 year anniversary. The range from the founder to a committee member in the 30's, to the 70's Ball and finally an old gal at the garden tour. I painted all day and listened to a book on tape and it was glorious-wish everyday could be like that, and that somehow I could make a living doing stuff like this...

Wasn't feeling quite that great today but I needed to so something, so I painted a soothing scene for myself and now I will take a nap!!!
