The picture for this one came from a B&B I stayed at last fall in Massachusetts. Every room was incredibly simple, which made it perfect for photographing!

Tomorrow, early I am flying to Santa Fe for an advanced workshop with some old kids ... ok, when I say that, I mean they were kids ... errr, of mine, well, anyway, uhhhh, so I'm teaching in Santa Fe next week. That's all. : )

I took the picture for this one at the Saturday Market here in Eugene, earlier this year, when it was just starting to warm up for spring. All these folks were sitting around listening to music, but this one little gal was enjoying the sun and looking off in the opposite direction. I had to redo her face a few times, but I feel really good about it now.

I am particularly proud of the title for this one, which I came up all by myself. I mean, with these up-close roses there is only so much to go on. This one was pure inspiration.

Reading on the Train
         
I took the picture for this one on the train into San Francisco from my pal Randi's house. This guy was sitting down the way from me and I said to my friend, "Check out that great light!" She said, "Oh." The train is not a new thing for her, so she sees the same thing all the time. I can only imagine the great pictures I would get if I rode the train every day!!!

I kind of cheated on this one. I didn't actually take the photo for this painting, but I did get permission to paint from it. My dad took it on his trip to Viet Nam a couple of years ago. I loved the light and so it's been in my "painting ideas" folder ever since.

Here is my entry for this week's Daily Paintworks Challenge. The reference photo is from a recent trip to Santa Cruz, CA. The sun was barely out, which made it a challenging photo. But what was really tough, honestly, were the foreshortened bodies! I had to measure like crazy. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Yearning Chicken Love            
 
I went around and around with the composition for this. I started out with lots and lots of cracked eggs and just the yellow chicken, but somehow couldn't get around the morbidity of that combination. Then I noticed the yellow chicken making googly eyes at the blue rooster, so in the end I let their love shine!

After almost a month apart, my husband and I escaped for the weekend, which is why I haven't posted. We'll be home later today.
