hi liza wonderful to read of your interests and to see some samples of your free and expansive spirit through your work. Taos and the sw in general is a favorite zone for me so i love seeing the great pic of you relaxing and sketching in the high dry air.

Hi Liza, glad you enjoyed my videos! No, that isn't me playing piano. Wish it was! The piano is being played by friend called Fred Cole. However, it is me singing and playing guitar on all the other videos, except Gone but not Forgotten, where Bruce McNicol is playing piano.

Wish  my witches broom was working so I could fly over and join you making music and painting in that wonderful scenery! Think I'll have to order Full Bloom, O'Keefe is one of my favorites too, Cheers from OZ, Lina

I like your wallpaper and the Unfinished Image. I'd be curious to see it when it's finished.

Nice paintings! I like the nest idea. You are very deft with your ability to paint detail. Do you work from photographs ?

Hi Liza,

 today I noticed you left a comment at this painting

http://www.artscuttlebutt.com/gallery/view/id_10665/

I guess I missed it.  thank you first for your cmpliments.  This painting is 5 feet by 4.5 feet.  What I did first was cover it with a heavy textured paint that I make up myself with a mix of joint compound and primer.  when it was almost dry I went back and scratched the squares in.  This is why some of them are jagged because the medium was harder there and was almost chiseled off.  then when the paint texture is completely dry I prime it one more time and then start adding the layers of washes and paint... this painting was done all with metallic paints
