Sophie
12x9 Oil on Linen Panel
come up with one I'm happy with. (I'll confess that it took me three times to get to this)
I'm hoping the posts will come more frequently. I think my winter resting period is coming to an end.
An update on the previous post for the entry for The Foot in the Door 4 exhibition. The painting Red Scarf was sold before the show so I entered the one below. It took two hours in line to drop off the painting and it turns out there were over 5000 entries. I skipped the opening reception (I had just gotten back into town from my vacation) A friend said there was not much parking and it was impossible to see everything due to the large crowd (probably all the artists) so he left. I will see it when the crowds are smaller. Most likely with my friend. It hangs until June. And in the meantime I have a piece hanging in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts Museum!

Sophie is lovely! Took you three tries to get her right??? I've just rewritten my chapter 6 about 8 times - you're way ahead of me!
It's great to see that your talent is recognized by the 'establishment' - as well it should be, Deb. I'm happy to see your posts whenever they appear.
Doug - I agree, spring can come early. Thanks!
Deborah - 8 times? (good to know - sounds like me trying to write!)and then there are the paintings that just get sent to the island of misfit paintings - where my daughters insist on trying to adopting them!
you capture the light of animals so very well, and sophie is no exception. congrats on all that you are doing. sounds like you are busy!
