NORTH VIEW

With our milder days, looks like spring is here to stay. Lots of new colors whenever I come home for the weekend. With all the explosion of dots of delicate colors, it's easy to create impressionistic touches in my sketches.

PARIS SKETCH

Rain in the forecast, this looks like a good weekend to spend more time on MY PARIS RAMBLINGS. This black & white charcoal sketch was from my last trip, I just added a bit of pastel today. I dont think I need to do anything else on it.

FROM MY GARDEN

Spring brings on so many inspirations, one leads to another... a fresh bouquet from my garden enhances a painting, or any corner.

MORNING GLOW

After some very mild March days, Spring is showing off its colors in the hills. The early morning light makes everything glow.
