This week I imagined myself in some exotic place as I painted bougainvillea above three entrances in a beautiful home in the woods in Dallas, Pa.
I like the idea that an image can give us energy - all day long one has the priviledge to look at things that have the power to uplift them and chose thoughts that feel just a little bit better.
I've got a special spot in my studio for postcards of artists I've collected and laminated over the years - it's my inspiration wall!
"Winter" fabric paint on silk 44" x 44" by Leigh PawlingWinter isn't so bad with knock out blue skies like this one ......
Monday was the first opportunity this year to get out in the woods with cross country skis. Weez needs skis too- she spends a lot of time stopping to chew snowballs out of her paws....
Here's a studio shot of two 4ft x 4ft paintings I recently did. Coffee cup - May your cup runneth over in 2011! And Salt and Pepper. Both are stretched and hanging on the entrance to the Benco Headquarters cafeteria called "Kitty's Kitchen".
