My Summer....

I can't believe how quickly the summer flew by. We're already back to school by a couple weeks! Though my summer was short, it was good. I had my art student and we worked on a beautiful lagoon painting. I spent time with my boys and their friends swimming and hanging out and enjoyed date nights with my husband...

I also spent time in my studio... I painted a mixed media sunflower for a very good friend of mine who has a special place in her heart for sunflowers. I worked on a painting for my niece, incorporating the beautiful photos she took on her trip to Paris. And I'm working on a series of paintings for a new restaurant in town.

The new restaurant is a very cool English pub called the Queen Vic. I'm working on appropriately themed pieces that I think will work in the pub. The Queen Vic also has a sister bar and tapas restaurant called Oporto, and I'll be working on more colorful abstract pieces to hang in there.

It feels good to get back into the studio and create.
