This has been a blazing and creative week. I worked on a small commission piece for a friend and painted small works to take to the gallery for Final Friday tonight. Caterpillar and Ladybug are two of those small works.

I worked a lot in my sketchbooks last week and several of my pages were simply clothing. I loved painting them so much, I decided to do a small series of shirts, which also went to the gallery. You will likely see more of these.

Tonight is Final Friday here in Wichita and this is what my space looks like as I type this. Readings at the Dusty Bookshelf (upper right and photo below) has a new frame. It was in a black frame, but I like this one better.

| Readings at the Dusty Bookshelf in a new frame. I painted Readings...nearly three years ago, but it stayed in our home for quite some time before I first showed it anywhere. It was inspired by a really atmospheric bookstore called The Dusty Bookshelf in Manhattan, Kansas. My only regret about this painting is that I didn't paint the store cat that lives there. Truth be told, I never even thought of it. Atmosphere was my ultimate focus at the time I painted it. |

I am still on a mission painting faces. I have a new project in mind which I will share more with you as things unfold. This was what actually took most of my time this week! Let's just say the words technical difficulties and leave it at that for now. :)
Happy weekend to you all and thank you tons for all your comments on Between Green Thread and Broccoli in the last post. Your positive feedback made me so happy.
