I also want to thank you for your feedback about my blog. You have encouraged me to continue.
We had rain today! Just a bit, but even a little hail was mixed in there. I didn't know hail happened in the desert. It does. Who knew?
Have a great weekend, everyone!
It is important to stretch oneself, and so I have been pushing myself to experiment with more neutral colors. This was in part inspired by my blogger friend, Robyn. I think I have a ways to go, but for me to not use color is REALLY hard! A few more of the studies I have been working on using neutral colors: (these are so much better in person. As always.)

We have rain here too and it is wonderful.
Your paintings are stunning. Love the broad strong sweep of the strokes and the combination of colours in this neutral sophisticated palette.
Oh THANKS Karine...I know I will enjoy reading this book!! Wonderful neutrals in these pieces and that pop of color on the second one is perfect:) Have a nice Sunday!!
