Hi, Susan! I found you through Claire's White River blog, and I keep coming back to this particular painting--for the light, surely, as you say. But also the curving hills remind me of southern Wisconsin, where I grew up. There's nothing like the landscapes of places we were once happy to draw us in, over and over again. Thank you for your work. Fresca

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".
