What’s on my easel – 12/1/20

Almost 2 months, feels like years

It’s been an interesting couple months, with adventures ranging from driving through the desert at dawn to an all day slog on the Mass Pike/NYS Thruway.

Wash/Rinse/Repeat

No photos of today’s work; I put paint on and I scraped it off. And did that all again a few more times. Yes, some days are like that. In other news, another painting, a view of the Longfellow Bridge during construction, titled No Salt, No Pepper, has found a home.

Beginnings again

And on the easel now –

Off to Vermont for the weekend and for fresh forsythia.

An evening at the MFA

The MFA has a Drawing in the Galleries program every Wednesday evening. Had a great time there. Sorry – dreadful photos.
