Join me as I juggle family, painting, marketing and all of the other things I am lucky enough to cram in to a single day.

Ready and Waiting
Ready and Waiting, Oil 12" x 12"
Sold.
The fundraiser is tomorrow. I really hope all of this work pays off. I realize the economy is slow but I have my fingers crossed that the auction goes well. I am so tired ... hope to get some energy from somewhere!
Hi Leslie, Well your paintings don't look tired. They all still have lots of energy and life. I love your lush colors and marks. And I never get tired of your boats. Good luck with the fundraiser. S p.s. are you using phathlo green or did you go back to just sap? I use phathlo and not sap - different strokes for different folks
Good luck with the fund raiser. I hope you can rest tomorrow. Love the juxtaposition of the red and green boats. Really dramatic.
ReplyDeleteThese things can be so exhausting. If you plan fundraisers as well as you paint, and I'm sure you do, all will go well! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!

GOOD LUCK!!! Adrenaline will pull you through - you will probably crash tomorrow! Love the reflections and color in this piece!!!

I love the red/green combo here, too, Leslie. Especially apropos for port/starboard lights!
