It's been way too long.....

Hellooo OUT THERE....

Not sure if you've given up on me;  I've behaved very badly - not having posted since last fall.
  
Following the advice of  "those in the know" (?) I started posting on Instagram and have an art Facebook page.  Found out fast how much time it takes to keep all these postings going.

So here's a little 'year in review' for 2016; it's been a good art period all in all....

  • Taught two really fun workshops at the College of Marin.  I'll post a couple photos down below.
  • In two weekends (May 14 & 15)  I'll join 270+ Marin Artists in Open Studios.  I've been working a bit frantically to get some new work done in time.
  • Began a new serious - Body Language .... raising the question of how correct are our assumptions when as we interpret people's body language?  Are we right in judging their mood or frame of mind without the benefit of verbal communication?  Here are a couple pieces:

This first one is a work in progress - hope to finish this week:  (click on image to see larger)

And, as promised - a couple shots from a group of very enthusiastic and adventurous totally novice painters!  Pictures of the rest of the group didn't come out because of the bright light from the windows. Sorry folks!
