I have been in a funk, not posting and not painting. So, I got busy and tried to get my paintbrush going on this little painting. It is not finished but what do you think? Last week I took a pleinair painting workshop from Michael Carter Johnson, in Tubac. There is so much to paint there, one should be inspired, but the Arizona sun made my painting difficult and I was not happy with the results, even though he is a very good teacher. Hopefully, I will come away with some pearls and be able to put them to work. I am disappointed tho with my pleinair painting and I think I need to work on studio paintings for awhile. Kathy Reyes the organizer of the workshop has invited me to come down to Tubac and paint with her and I am thinking I should do that. Here is a picture of me painting at the Tubac Golf course...what a beautiful spot, I will post my painting of that place also (even though I am not happy with it). Sorry for the rambling, please stay in touch, I need some encouragement!

I know, I have been lax about posting. It is a busy time of year. We have snobirded down to our little house in Arizona, so I am looking at desert and cactus to paint. I have been lazy about painting what with Christmas and all, but now I need to get going again, so started a painting today. I have a couple of commissions I need to start also, but just wanted to get my brush going again and back in the groove. Please email me, you viewers of my blogsite and give me some encouragement to get to painting! I see some viewers to my blog but I don't know who you are (not many make comments), I know it is difficult to comment, some say they cannot make it work. My email: geriduck@bresnan.net. Happy New Year everyone, I wish you all a healthy, productive and prosperous New Year!

Just finished this painting of Salmon Lake. A commission for my husbands nephew Darrell and his wife Anna. This is the biggest painting I have ever done, it was a test for me. I think it turned out alright. In spite of being happy with it, I always think I would like to do it over (maybe it could be better next time?). So now you know what I have been busy with and why there hasn't been many postings lately.
