This one sold before it was signed or framed.
I was really happy with it so it was hard to let
it go.
For those of you in the San Francisco bay
area, Marin Open Studios is May 1,2 & 8,9th.
You can visit my studio at Art Works
Downtown, 1337 4th. St. San Rafael. Do to a very
unexpected and hopefully short term illness however,
I won't be there. My studio will be open
and someone will be there to help you.

Another wonder workshop, this time with John Morra
from New York, www.johnmorrapainting.com. He is
one of today's leading classical realists and part of the
group associated with the Water Street Atelier. It is so
wonderful to finally find mentors devoted to realism.
It is time, however, for me to stay home and paint!

I came across a wonderful website today, www.emptyeasel.com. It is full of information from marketing art online to painting materials.
My studio right now has an empty easel. I was working on a still life with pears and grapes but left for New York before it was finished. The fruit was quite rotten when I returned a week later. Because I like to paint from life, it was necessary to change the fruit and composition. It took much longer than expected but I will post it as soon as it's dry enough to photograph. Here is an older landscape of a view near my home north of San Francisco.

I took a wonderful workshop with Sherrie McGraw in Scottsdale. She is amazing. She broke her wrist and painted with her left hand instead of canceling the class. I would really recommend her to anyone interested in painting the figure or still life.

Open Studios was very successful. It was wonderful to receive such positive feedback on my new work. I'm surprised at how hard it has been to change from watercolors to oils, I thought it was going to be so easy! Each painting I do is a challenge, but I need to remember how long it took to become proficient in watercolors.
I've been traveling so much, Seattle, North Carolina, next week Tahoe and then New York, so I haven't been in my studio for quite a while. Painting is such a wonderful obsession, it's very hard to be away from it for any length of time. I hope to get back to it soon.
