Sunrise with Eagles
To catch the Maine harbor sunrise, I was up and outside at 5:30 watching the spectacle unfold waiting to catch a glimpse of the eagles in their nest. I was not disappointed!

New Year - New Life - New Inspiration
It has been a whirlwind settling into our new home and new life in New Hampshire that is providing oodles of new inspiration!
I have found my new "art tribe!" The Greater Salem Arts Association is a perfect fit for me. At the December juried show, my painting of "Delightful Dahlias" won first place in watercolor and best of show. What an honor.

Evergreen Farms Holiday Market
In between settling in to our new home, I have been creating holiday ornaments for Evergreen Farms Holiday Market - November 30. Families can cut their own trees and enjoy a holiday experience.
Botanical miniatures and winter bird themes are painted on each ornament with a stamped motif on the reverse side. No two are alike.
New Home in New Hampshire!
Moving a household is one thing, moving one that houses an art studio is another! But it happened! From West Lafayette, Indiana to Pelham, New Hampshire, we have been warmly welcomed by our daughter’s family and the wonderful New Hampersherites.

Don’t Worry - Bee Happy!
This is the title that came to me as I was finishing up a “one more time” painting adventure before we move to New Hampshire. When a friend posted an invitation on Facebook to come pick sunflowers in her field, how could I resist? So with my art buddy, Nancy, we drove out to the country and took photos and picked an armload of sunflowers. The bees were very busy pollinating and didn’t seem to mind us at all. We then spent two glorious afternoons under my pergola painting the golden blooms.

Dahlia Mania!
In the process of moving from Indiana to New Hampshire, the last thing to be packed up is my studio. I couldn’t resist painting another big dahlia painting as I demonstrated for my classes. The blooms are irresistible to my heart and paintbrushes!
