I'm flying home to Vermont today, but will continue to post paintings from my three weeks in the Bahamas--which will help me remember the pleasures, once back in my studio, of working outdoors in a tee shirt in the middle of winter.
Three weeks in the Bahamas - you lucky girl! This one is so gorgeous and full of color and life. I've enjoyed seeing all your work from the Bahama workshop - and have talked to my Sweetie about next year coming to join in. Time to plan is now!! Seeing the people on the porch painting and learning and then out painting in those lovely spots is so inspiring.
Thank you for writing, Rhonda. I hope you can join us in Hope Town next year. It's a lovely winter break--and I would enjoy meeting you and painting with you, after taking a look at your blog!
Thanks, Cathy. This sky was at the end of a day of storms, the only really unsettled weather I had in three weeks in Hope Town. As usual with a weather change, it made for a fast and exciting painting session.

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".

Thank you, Katherine! It is back to the world of snow and ice here, and how quickly we adjust...
