Monday...I got in a nice bike ride this morning! Did the first mow of the season.  The grass (well, weeds!) were getting too unruly to ignore.  Painted the rest of the day.   Linda started her morning in the kitchen making baked oatmeal and meatloaf.  Then she was glued to her desk all day.  On the phone forever, trying to confirm travel insurance with our charge card.  We watched an interesting, disturbing documentary on Netflix,  Plastic Detox.

"Foundations of Light"      $500
The traditions and the simplicity of the past... our history symbolized by a room in an old mill, illuminated by an old lamp.  Light is a celebration, without it, we have no clarity.

A beautiful pottery bowl with a striking pattern.

I am truly at a loss for words.  A long time friend passed away suddenly.  I am still in a bit of shock.  We had plans to ride bike together in Spring.  Blessed to have known Jerry since our kids were in Middle School.  We shared lots of track time, great conversations and he was one of my walkers during my Cancer treatments. 

Jerry, you will be missed.  Click here for his obit.

2026 Still Life #6

mini original watercolor $225.
I saw this while visiting Pottsgrove Manor in Pottstown PA.  I have never seen candles on a chair rail.  The marks on the wall were marks from the candle burning.  I don't know how they did not cause a fire.  I found it interesting.

This was a request from Linda, a special microphone from Sun Studio in Memphis. It turned out better than I thought and I really got into the challenge of painting it.  It sparks memories, I can imagine news broadcasters sitting behind it, every disk jockey from my old favorite radio stations...

Commission Update:

Adding a background, giving some distance, planting her feet and adding some shadows.



Working on the sky.  Whatever I do, SHE must be the focal point.
