With minutes to spare before the New Year I'd like to thank visitors to my blog for your kind words of encouragement.  I am happy with the direction I took painting smaller formats and look forward to more
creative endeavours in 2012 as I hope you are too.  May you be blessed with all that you need and most of what you want.  Love, health and happiness, Happy New Year!

A Little Something for Me

...and that little something would be "time".  The Christmas season feels closer to me when I'm creating something.  It is such a wonderful time of year for creating and yet is the most difficult time to complete anything.  I was determined to reclaim some time to do something that was not required but simply for the joy of it.  Painting at least three seasonal subjects would make me happy.  I may not get to finish this one until early next week after I return from Boston but I'm quite content to see it on my easel and if I'm lucky I'll start another.
