1591 Meets 2013

"The Critique"

Acrylic - 24 x 12

Just who is critiquing whom?  This is a young woman at the San Francisco Legion of Honor sketching a painting by Frans Pourbus the Younger dated 1591.

Has Jeanette been eaten by a dinosaur?

I know, I know.....I have been gone for awhile on both my personal blog and my painting blog.

I've been busy. 

Everyone seems to be busy. 

Life needs to slow down.

Can that happen???

Sing this to the tune of the 12 days of Christmas....

This month I had.....

1 dad recovering from hip surgery

2  friends in need of meals

and 3 new painting shows.

4 commissions waiting

5  deadlines  approaching

and 6 places to be to-day! 

7 new paintings drying,

8  Lemon trees freezing,

and oh yes,
many days of no-oh-oh rain.

10 Christmas lists,

11 Amazon drop offs,

and 12 places to be at once!

After wrapping 46 gifts today, I will be ready to put my feet up.  How about you?

Enjoy this holiday season, for no matter whether you got every ornament on your Christmas tree or the perfect Carrot Pudding made this year, or the dust bunnies from under your bed, it truly is about more important things.  And you are one of them.  Family and friends!!

Enjoy 2014...
