Along the Way12X12
Oil on Canvas
I have had good teachers, but I've never had an art mentor who was a giant in the industry, someone to sternly push me forward or correct my repeated mistakes when I take a wrong turn with the brush. But I am just as fortunate to have a muse, my friend Sharon, who takes the most beautiful photographs of her home and her region in New England and so generously shares them with me to paint. Sharon's blog focuses on the changes in seasons and the creatures that thrive in her region. She lives in one of the most idyllic spots in the nation, though the winters can be brutal there.
The year feels like it is moving toward a close already, doesn't it? Wherever you are, I hope you have a muse in your life, a friend who is very dear to you, and little four footed assistants to help keep your schedule on track like I do. Oh and some master painter mentor to give you a kick in the oil spattered pants whenever needed. Wouldn't that be grand.
