"THE CANYON"

12"X6"

work in progress

Hi all - I am finally painting again. I'm slowly getting back to normal and I just had to go into the studio today. I painted five paintings! Some will be daily paintings, some will be for Artfest.

This particular painting is a view of a canyon wash with a stream running through it. I love the mingling of colors and the contrast of the oranges with the blues. I am getting in the mood to go plein air painting. It's finally spring here, but I bet the trees haven't blossomed out in the north yet. We are supposed to go out and paint in Dixon as soon as the apple trees blossom, that should be a blast.

I'm feeling a lot better these last few days. I go to the doctor on Friday and will probably be able to start exercising at my normal pace on Monday. For those of you watching my weight loss blog, I was not able to weigh in at WW last Saturday, so I have no idea how I did. I will let you know this weekend. Anyway, I'm glad to be back. in my studio and thanks for hanging out with me!
