Looks like we may finally be off to the old country! Too bad there's no room for paints and brushes. Talk to you all later.

Painted these tulips tonight from my birthday tulips. This is a large canvas(for me) and was painting it to hang in the "Curves" where I am a member. First, when asked if I might hang a canvas, they thought they might have to charge me and now they keep asking when the picture is coming. Going on a 2 week holiday so will not be posting for a while. God Bless!

This is the final edition of the tulip-for now! Can't wait to paint the real thing outside. Much too cold to do that right now.

Finally, back to doing some painting! The weather has been so mild that everywhere is evidence of the renewal of the season The Star Magnolias are just shouting their beauty! Here is a painting of something smaller-crocuses. Close to the warm earth they are basking in the sun.

This painting of the "pigweed" was done on a cheap piece of 1/4" plywood and the corner cracked on the way home. C'est la vie!

It was sitting on the top of a rock in the full sun.Wonderful shadows!
