I am such a negligent blogger - and so apologize to everyone. This next week is not going to be much better - just got a late position in the circuit on our town's twice a year Gallery Night - I will be hanging my work at a courtyard restaurant, tapas bar, gallery - downtown not this Friday, but next! Also the owner requested I stay on the spot and paint his courtyard as a demo for people coming in. I can do that! I am finishing five paintings which I've totally goofed on for a couple of years, and then I want to paint two more, a chicken and a house - - - don't know if I'll make it.
The above painting is a vision I had when staying in the West Indies - the dogs with white hair and golden eyes and the blood veins and cells and energy within - - - pleased with how it turned out - if it sells, I will cry - no I will laugh and paint another.
So, I have to vacuum and then start painting - painting 24 hours straight except for four hour nap two days ago to do this one - my back is better, but complaining about the sitting.....
Happy May everyone - don't know how oil spill is coming, but news from British Columbia friends say that it may be a catalyst to keep drilling out of their area in question and hopefully the same movements will begin world-wide in regard to offshore drilling and responsible energy policies. BP has been offering free gas here - as one of my friends, says, how about free shrimp, turtles, and clean water?

Wow, that is a very compelling painting, Gardenia. I love it!
this is such an interesting painting. Good luck on the exhibit!
Congratulations on Gallery Night! I hope you'll also get some free food and drinks along the way!
I like this painting very much -it is very surreal, especially the landscape.
It sounds like you're caught in a creative whirlwind. More power to you!!
That is a beautiful painting and it must be exciting to be hanging your stuff in places like that.. congrats..
I love the other worldly lava look of it all!!
