here is a better pic of the last painting

Starting a still life

This is the photo I will be working from…… stay tuned :)

finished “Lauren” portrait

today’s work……

Love

I am entwined

Weaved in the moss and umber

Smelling of dew

And reflecting

Oaks patterned in the blue

With a dearth of sound

And intricate sewing of roots

Moving loam

That bubbles with life

And lives

by the faint babble of a brook

Dappled with leaves small and ever so dainty

Like inspiration

Brimming sunshine in a cup

more paint, more color

progress report

This Impression

Twinned in auburn

with masts piercing dappled sky

reflecting a truth

that rests upon the lily pads

blurring an impression

by those black stripes of a rowboat

reflecting a truth

in the eyes of the onlookers

who search for solace

in the deep changing blues of the sky

this impression

Painting progress for today.
