Working on something new. It feels good to have paint on my hands again. I love laying down these first layers of color adding the richness and depth. Watching the image appear rough at first getting smoother, cleaner with every layer.

If you’re looking for some last minute Thanksgiving table ideas here are few from my family over the years. We like a beautiful table! Once when packing up my china in preparation for one of these family dinners I was asked if we were having a wedding? I said “nope just dinner”.
We know how to throw a party it’s simple all you need are table linens, flowers candles and amazing food!

Great thing about being an artist you never have to buy decor!

It was a great day to sit outside and sell art. I loved meeting so many art lovers and artists at the loop festival. It was a wonderful day.

The weather was definitely frightful but the dinner was delightful! The company was even better! It was a Merry Christmas. 🎄🎁 Today was was full of lots of joy and laughter…. and so much food.

Happy Thanksgiving!
