I am so happy to be painting daily studies again!

For one thing, they get me motivated to paint, 

which gets me into the studio early.

 They also help me avoid procrastination (which I have loads of).

This is a view of the Algodones plateau from the high mesas of Placitas.

I was painting back on the old Placitas Loop Road, the sky was full

of clouds and I must have shot a million photos.

The fact that this beautiful plateau is about 10 minutes away from me from just blows my mind.

I wish I could remember to put it on my calendar to head over there once a week 

right about sunset time and be ready with my camera. 

Especially if there are lots of white puffy clouds in the sky.

In other news, I'll be buying my large 30x30: canvases

tomorrow to paint for the upcoming Weems show 

"FLOWERS AND VEGGIES."

I think I'm going to try to get about eight paintings done for the show.

And I'm using a  bit of new technique I learned from an artist friend.

We'll see how that goes!
