I squinted my eyes and focused on painting shapes.  It was a fun process and good exercise in painting what I see and fighting my mind's eye or what our brain tells us what we see.

"Cosmos"

oil on panel

6x6"

Cosmos, what a cool name for a flower.   They are actually in the sunflower family.  (see my post from yesterday)

Having Spring fever, these were a treat to paint.   Cosmos were the first flower I ever started from seed.  I got them from a lovely neighbor back when I was going to college.  They are so dainty looking yet very hardy.  The great thing is they re-seed themselves and come back every year in abundance. 

I miss having Cosmos, I will have to find a good spot for some this year.

"Best Vines"

After a long gray Winter, I am relishing in  this warm, colorful palette.  I could set up my easel and paint on these dreamy hills of this vineyard for days on end.

While painting this, I thought of what a nice piece this would be for that girlfriend that is a wine lover.  Like me haha!  Maybe I should barter for wine.  Just kidding!  Sort of.

"Spring Brisk"

oil on panel 

6x6"

Such a mild winter.  We are already starting to see some green pop.  Hopefully we wont have any hard freezes that could harm the buds.  I think the brisk weather and the fact that I haven't painted outside in a while made this painting quite "brisk".  Looking forward to getting out again soon, but not today with the 60mph winds.

This morning I was putting some dry paintings into storage.  Of course I was supposed to be painting but I was feeling rusty and decided to stall.  Besides my studio is a mess and I needed to make room so I could focus.  Anyway, I came across this little guy that I did at the start of the new year but never posted.  So, here it is.  By the way I did actually start painting eventually.  I will post those later this

Surprisingly I snuck in some studio time on Sunday afternoon.  Then, I went outside and attempted to run off all those Christmas cookies I enjoyed among other comfort foods while hibernating the last few months.
