We took a trip across the state yesterday and I took my sketchbook with me to keep from getting bored on the ride.  Last night I added paint to this sketch.

Again the image insert didn't work so here is the link.  It seems like it works every other day.  Strange.

Today the image insert worked.  This is a  painting from my adventures in  Ecuador.  Thought it would be appropriate  after reading about the volcano erupting.

Hi everyone.  Again today the insert image isn't working.  Other than that it has been a fairly good day.  Today's picture, Mountain Cove, is for all you folks who love the mountains.   It is a monotype 14X11.  hope you enjoy it.

Here is my daily picture.  Today the image insert worked.  We have had such gorgeous weather and I would really like to be out on the river in a sailboat.  Since I don't have a boat anymore this monotype will have to do.  The painting is 24X18".

For some reason the site won't let me insert an image in the blog section today.   So check out my new addition, Rosie.  It was such a beautiful day here this picture seemed appropriate for the good mood I was in until I tried to load the image in the blog.  It is 7X5" miniature watercolor.

    I  finally figured out how to add an image to the blog.  This is my daily submission.  There are an abundance of Blue Footed Boobies and Penguins in Galapagos.  The painting is done with water soluble oils on canvas  and is 11X14".

Today's posting is the original "Refuge" that inspired yesterday's painting.  I really like it for its simplicity.  It is a place that I would love to be.  It is a monotype, 24X18".

It was a beautiful, sunny day in central Fl.  My husband and I spent the day in a couple of conservation areas.  It is refreshing to know that there are still pockets of Fl that have not been overtaken by humans.  The strange thing about the day was an almost complete dearth of wildlife.  Usually this is the prime season for migratory birds.  We have noticed the obvious lack of birds in three parts of the state in the last week.  If they are not here, where are they?  Anyway the day in the wilderness made me think of this painting, "Refuge - Miniature."  It is  a 7X5" monotype that was inspired by a larger version.

Check my gallery for today's addition, "Sun Day".  As you see I do a lot of nature paintings.  This one is from a cool day, and I am sure the sun felt good.  Enjoy.
