Very excited about the wonderful news of being accepted in to the "Painting The Region" Bartram Trail: October 6th-10th 2009. It is a beautiful area, and the opportunity to paint it En Plein Air is a blessing indeed. For more info on the show http://www.paintingtheregion.com/index.html

Continue working on commissions in the studio. Confess, my front yard hauntingly calls me to paint the crepe myrtle in bloom and surrounded by all the other blooms around it. Just might allow that distraction to play itself out today. Adding an ole favorite painting to the blog today. It is titled "Precious Gifts"... have been reminded in many ways the many Precious Gifts received today. May it be an UP day for you too... in every way! K

ps:
Some may be interested in www.InHisLightBeforeTheDawn.blogspot.com It is a completely different hat that is worn though. Never wishing to offend any with it... just open to sharing with those that may desire to hear or see this other avenue too. It remains a work in progress.

Commissions In The Studio Continue...

This is a fun portrait just completed of twin brothers playing at their favorite park. It is a 20x24 Oil on Linen "Boys Exploring All The Ins And Outs Together"

Look forward to sharing another in the works of two more brothers playing in the surf at the gulf. It is a major 30x40 portrait... that due to shoulder injury am way way way behind on... but am determined to complete this summer.

Do look forward to also painting some of the glorious blooms that abound both at the beaches and inland.

Summer classes are in full swing too at the VAC... links are to the right.

Hope you enjoy these ever exploring twins...

as much as I do. Am Ever thankful for such fun commission... look forward to sharing the next real soon. Also will be great if your are able to join me in the classroom too-
