"Abundance", 11x14"

Abundance,  14x11"

Moving is stressful!  Selling a house, planning a new house, and leasing an apartment in a city high-rise (Denver) is uprooting- literally.  It's interesting to me that during this time of general upheaval, my painting has become more controlled and meditative.  I'm drawn to flowers right now, particularly white ones.  They force me to slow way down and really examine them.  Form, light and shadow, and undiscovered colors are pulling me in.

I'm developing a series of floral paintings that I'll be showing at the Petter Gallery this summer, in a show called "Bouquet".  It'll be all about the bouquet of flowers and wine.  I hope you'll be able to come.  The date is July 13, in Saugatuck, Michigan.  Sounds like a great time for a mini-getaway!
