When a card design sells, I usually try to work up another version. To turn this into a valentine card, I added some hand lettering into the heart. I have to rewrite the fonts many times, to find the right combo. From a thank you greeting, I have a Valentine greeting.
Inspirations and sketches from my studio in the Catskill Mountain. The solitude of my Artist Retreat compels me to keep exploring, seeing, experimenting, and painting all the picturesque quality outside my window.

WILD LEEK, DAFFADILS, LUNCH
Mornings of lingering in bed under the cover is behind me. Spring mornings are the best. I really look forward to my morning hikes. I came back with a bunch of ramp from the woods this morning. Always happy to have something new to fill my sketchbook. Playing with floral arrangement is another great way to start my day… before you know it, it's time for lunch. Got inspire to toss the wild leeks & pasta with some bacon!
