I started this painting a while back, and decided to work on it today. I can't paint snow or water, so need to practice. I may decide to work on this a bit more later, or I may decide to just abandon it.

I have already thrown away the painting of the rusty old car, and also one of an old pickup and shed. I also did some organization in my studio, so maybe my painting mood will improve. I have two new watercolors started, and am getting the old rusty car on paper to paint again! I just can't give up on it.

And I have committed myself to do at least one small value study per day.




Have enjoyed Judi's flower pictures. Here is one I took years ago and scanned it from a slide. It is Bitter Root.

The newest family member, Hadley. She is my great great neice, and Bill and Alice's first great grandchild. Wouldn't this make a great painting or drawing? Sorry, Nicki, but I'm not a big fan of the headband and big flower!

The bill to expand the wilderness areas in Sublette County seems like a bad joke. I keep expecting someone to pop up and say "April Fool!" Surely there are enough members of the house and senate with a little common sense and this bill will be defeated. Expecting politicians to have common sense may be unrealistic, however.
