Valentine!

Happy Valentine's Day to YOU

...and my wonderful,

amazing New Mexico. It is not called

The Land Of Enchantment for nothing.

I love it and am grateful I found it...

or it found me!

Lots of sorting out and making floor plans.

I feel like an architect! 

We are being professionally moved.

Downsizing sounds easy

but we have to make sure 

everything fits

and accessories like 

lamps and paintings

have a home.

Or...

we will have to pay to move

what doesn't fit - out.

Enjoy your day.

If you don't have a Valentine

please remember

the most 

precious one of all is YOU!

Artist Note

This was a demo for

 the last class of the semester

at the Artist Guild SNM

It was painted on a surface 

already colored

by a previous wipe-off.

I started with the transparent
darker areas first, adding
the colored opaque areas bit by bit
as I gradually moved into
the whitest areas,

I used a photo I had taken
at Trader Joes of the
tops of the orchids through
the  clear wrapping.
Purple, yellow and white flowers.
Beautiful together.

This is an unusual size but I like
how it flows
and do not want to crop it.
It will need a custom frame.

Thank you for all the
great comments on my last post.
I am sorry I have not had time
 to answer them.
Busy, busy with Thanksgiving
and fun company.
Plus...
the house still on the market!!
