SUMMER Greetings !

CALIFORNIA HERE I COME!

And... YES! It IS right back where I started from!

In the spirit of THE MOVE - here is the recently finished painting:

“Happy California Poppy”

The color orange is one of my favorites!

Orange is vibrant and is associated with health, joy and sunshine.

This painting was created as a result of being asked to come up with a number of possible images for the new Prebys Cardiovascular wing at Scripps in La Jolla. The image chosen was a different one but I liked this one so much I painted it!

Coincidentally - while waiting the arrival of the moving trucks from Oregon, I have been asked to be at a Power of Art, Power of Healing event at Scripps (along with other artists) - with a ‘representative’ piece of art. The artists will talk with patrons about the project and their work.

A BIG THANK YOU to a friend and Collector in Carlsbad who is allowing me to borrow a painting that is a perfect ‘fit’ for the occassion to bring as the requested ‘representative' artwork as all of my available works will be in transit from Oregon!

Having FAITH and an Update on the New “Inspirational Reminders”

“FAITH”

In keeping with THE MOVE, the adventures ahead and so much in life, I am thinking FAITH!

In addition to the written MESSAGES on this piece, some of the things collaged and layered behind the scenes of this image and what I was thinking when including them:

Not hidden is my favorite Bluebird again! The Bluebird of Happiness of course!

A BIG FAT THANK YOU.....

to those who reached out to me (and made purchases!) after last months Newsletter where I featured the image “Every Challenge Offers a Gift” and mentioned that I would be offering prints coming up!
