New York Minute (sigh)
Last week, I cannot believe it has been a week already, we had an opportunity to got to New York City! Pretty unbelievable place. Although there seemed to be far more people there than I remembered from the last time, the place is WONDERFUL! And bright! And colourful! We stayed right on Times Square for the first two nights. Right outside our hotel door seemed like millions of people. And then moved to Central Park for the next two. Took lots of photos, ate really well, walked until we dropped – quite literally! And we took in “The Lion King” as well as The Museum of Natural History…

Hat Trick
I am loving this technique I love that even with the layers of paint you can still see the impasto underpainting- in this cast the texture I created by painting through burlap.

I Had a Total Blast
2013 SKB Workshop in Dubois WY Wyoming was everything I had hoped it would be and more! A very special photo of me receiving a 2nd Place Award Ribbon in Water Colour from Sir John Seerey-Lester (sigh). He told me that my painting was really a lovely little piece! I so love meeting my friends from Art Colony Blog in person and getting to know them! We had so much fun. We created so many memories and have the photos to prove it! We have photos with ourselves with an amazing group of famous artists..Robert Bateman, Morten Solberg, Greg Beecham, Sir John Seerey-Lester and his wife Suzy, Carl Purcell…

Planning My Packing
I am excited beyond belief! In less than two weeks I will be travelling to Dubois, WY where I will be painting to my heart’s content. Dubois is known for its western flavour and also being cowboy country with real ranches! Its also the location of the Susan Kathleen Black Foundations workshop that I will be attending. This is a major life experience for me. This is the first time I am travelling that far on my own with three flight changes. Adding to the excitement that I plan to meet up with a group of women that I only know online! Additionally we all plan on visiting Yellowstone National…
