Welcome!

I’ve been documenting my creative endeavors since 2014. Thoughts on the creative process, my travels, shows, new ideas and what’s on my easel are just a few things I post on. Feel free to linger…

Just Got Back From Northern Michigan! Two Weeks off the Grid!

Hello!

Despite the fact that two (known) black bears, a bobcat, and a bunch of coyotes have decided to live up at our Michigan camp, we made it through two weeks without formal introductions.  My husband's trail cam caught the not so little nocturne predators and I hope to never see them in the light of day.

That aside, I have lots of new photos to paint this summer.  The landscapes there are breathtaking.  I have a new fixation on the Old Mission Peninsula and will absolutely be putting paint to canvas, hopefully doing the rolling topography, vineyards, and waterscapes, justice.

We'd planned this trip for later in the summer, but my husband's work stuff prompted a quick shift in our calendar and I'm glad.  The weather was perfect!  Warm and not humid.

Hope you have a wonderful 4th of July weekend!  Will be back to the easel tomorrow!
