| Picasso Colored Fields mixed media on panel 5 x 7 inch |
Lately, I have been doing a lot of painting. And I've felt inspired by some of the colors in Picasso's work.
And it got me thinking about color mixing which made me watch this video by Gillian Lee Smith (Cox now).
Then I kept thinking about all those pretty pinks on the palette which made me order this pink strawberry cake at a women's fair with a friend the other day. Yummo.

I began experimenting with my Shiva Oil Paintstiks once again and loved the tones they gave to these faces.
I have been painting mostly in the early hours of the morning.
I was involved in an art auction to benefit those suffering from Juvenile Arthritis. This is me and the sweet 12 year old I worked with this past summer. We worked on one 16 x 20 inch together (left painting) and I created one that went with the theme she chose. Our pieces auctioned for $350! I love that she chose happy colored flowers to reflect her happier days...she has been in remission for some time now which is wonderful. I wish it was that way for all the children that were there that night.
Enjoying the Fall colors along our street.
And watching the sky and the river at The Keeper of the Plains bridge.
Taking bike rides with a long time friend.
And conquering Kansas mountains...which is a lot harder than it looks.
Making comfort food.
Ordered a bohemian art pillow from Sparkle Day Studio AKA Corrine Gilman.
And more walks on the river...
and down the streets...
and the sidewalks...
taking it all in...
with my furry walking companion Hurley.
and listening to Philip Glass' beautiful theme music from The Truman Show.
And enjoying the blue Morning Glories and the other flowers I planted in the back yard this past Spring...getting ready to say goodbye to them.
What have you been up to lately?
