Painted this 6 x 8" yesterday. No luck photographing it because of the rain. I finally got a break in the rain today so that I could take it outside to photograph. If you look closely I think you will see a couple of raindrops. I had a great Thanksgiving with my family. Glad to get back to painting after several days break. I am also busy preparing and packing my work for a three day art show I am taking part in in Nashville. Hope to squeeze in a couple of paintings before I leave. SOLD

This is a commission piece for an English patron. I am actually going to carry it with me to England in a few weeks. She has bought one painting from me before and now I am delivering this and another painting. She has been helpful to make lots of dining recommendations and even sent me a book , "secret london". So fun making friends I may never meet through the blog world. Speaking of friends I talk to often but have not met is the owner of the original "prime time". (24 x 36") Denise lives in North Carolina and has bought at least eight paintings from me. She is sweet to email me now and then to check in or just compliment a new work. More on blog friends....I really do appreciate when folks take the time to comment. It takes alot of time and patience but it is very helpful to hear. I need to find more time to visit and comment on my friend's work. This piece is painted on an 8 x 10" linen panel.sold
