Nearing Completion...


We recently lost a lovely soul from the artist community.  Her name was Cia (Cecelia) Price and she was a watercolorist.  Her selfless efforts to teach and assist all artists to better their skills remains as part of her legacy.  Cia will be greatly missed by so many.

Yesterday, after baking bread and a spice cake, I finally put my attention back onto my lily painting.  I am posting the result of this session.  The highlights are coming now and the colors are beginning to snap.  With luck I hope to finish the project today and move onto my next floral.  I actually have two jumping around in my head wanting out, so we shall see what happens.  To this point, I am happy with the lily.

For those of you who have followed my blog, now that we are set up to stay put for a while, I will be getting back to work on my stained glass window of one of my husband's bull rides.  If you want to see that project, scroll down my postings and you will find it.

  4. Elise, The shot you refer to I took of Summit Lake, Montana. We were camped alongside the lake and I loved the storm moving over the snow capped mountains. This was the same day I photographed the bear grass. It is an extremely beautiful place and we will visit there again. Thanks for stopping by my blog, I hope you visit again often.
