DRAGONFLY

.."deep in the sun searched growths, the dragonfly hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky..." DANTE G. ROSSETTI

SKY & WATER

summer morning....study of sky and water with charcoal

SUMMER SKETCH

with the humidity and threat of thunderstorm....nice to be painting outdoor, in the middle of the element...sweat and horse fly!

STRAWBERRY SEASON

not the best strawberry season with so much rain, but always good to get a few fresh strawberries after the bunnies polish them off the vines

another QUOTE

"Just living is not enough, said the butterfly...One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower." H. C. ANDERSON

COLLAGE

not too much time in the studio today, worked up a quick collage for my sketchbook..I print up a small photo of one of my tree painting and extend it out with some colors....a printer in the studio can be a very creative tool...we have come a long way from good old fashion paints

SUMMERSKY

with all this rain, there's more time for finish paintings, this one is from my tiny sketches of last week
