    Maintaining the Momentum

    Painting my sky series had the potential to become repetitive, to the point of boring for me as an artist. Could I continue to stay inspire

    Challenge, Goal, Opportunity!

    The sky is the limit

    In my most recent blog post, I described the start of a month-long series of sky studies. My intent was to do one pastel study per day with a goal of completing 24 over a period of one month. At that writing I was about halfway to my goal. (If you missed the preceding post and want to read it first, you may do so here, just don’t forget to come back and finish reading!)

So, for this week's blog I am sharing the story of my Deep Blue series of paintings. The series was spawned by a trip to the Abacos in the Bahamas. It was a vacation I had eagerly anticipated – my first time to anything Bahamas - and the week flew by. The entire trip, I was awestruck by the colors, especially of the water. As

    A week for palm trees

    Palm Trees. I never tire of them. There are so many different varieties. Tall & thin. Short and stocky. With coconuts. Without coconuts. I especially love to stand directly underneath and photograph up into the canopy. Although I just returned from a trip to Florida, it was not my intention to write about palm trees. But this week proved to be all about the trees that I find so intriguing. I have previously painted a series of pastel paintings, two of which were coconut
