Rainy Morning, London

Sitting under the awning of a coffee shop somewhere in Pimlico, trying to stay dry.

Sunday Sketchbook: London

I spent five hours of this rainy Sunday at the National Gallery, then ate dumplings in Chinatown made by a little old lady rolling dough in the tiny restaurant's front window, and took a long evening walk back to my room on the West End through wet, lamplit St. James Park--all my idea of London at her best.

Top of the Road

One more look at autumn on my hill before I leave for London today for a solo museum sojourn (and hopefully some journal painting) before my sketchbook workshop in Paris.

Tractor and Hay Bales

The hay is finally in, and we take a breath and look around us: trees transformed by color, waiting for the first wind of a new season.
