My reward for a night on a plane and then an adventurous drive in a rental car from Santiago to the coast: watching the sun go down and the moon rise over the ocean.
Thanks, Altoon and Linda. This was a lovely spot, and a wonderful time of day. By the time i set my easel up, the light was almost gone--sometimes you are just trying to keep up.

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".
