Rain has been tapping on the roof and skylights all the live-long day.
But I feel as though I’ve been out hiking up hill and down, into small dales, beside copses, under big skies, along trails, fresh dry air abounding.
Thank you, sketchbook, tape, India ink, white gesso, oil pastel, eye dropper, tissue, water brush, and palette knife.
Are these down-and-dirty-don’t-stop-to-think-keep-moving-walk-away-in-minutes sketches fun or what?
I did get a nice little workout for a rainy day! It’s been awhile since I’ve just popped into my studio for such a satisfying burst of quick-moving intuitive creative play. The fun and experimentation were so welcome and buoying.

Great little studies! When you have a sketchbook ready, a few tools, a rainy/sunny day, miracles happen.

In 2014, I grab an unexpected opportunity to paint.
To make art.
I get hooked.
In 2015 I start a blog—a diary of my life as an artist.
I post my paintings and their stories. The good, the bad, the ugly.
My compass points: bust through fear, be playful, get messy, trust my gut.
