I'm enjoying the series Motel on 302 but don't seem to be able to find #1. If it's been posted, could you let me know what date? Your paintings are wonderful!
Thanks for writing, Skizo, Kathy and Gwendie. This motel was a place I drove by for years and never noticed--until one day I turned my head from the traffic and saw the light hitting those little houses and the shadows coming off of those oddball trees. I haven't painted #1 yet, Gwendie--I've numbered them in the order I think they'll appear in the final composition, once I assemble all nine panels.

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".

What a great composition! Really dramatic.
