Since we moved, my painting locations have been more mobile and less frequent. The paintouts have been my refuge, but now things are looking up. My new studio is a very large, very old RV. It was our first home on the land last summer and now I get it all to myself.
Since moving it to the side of the property, the electricity has been disconnected making it very cold this past winter, and very hot so far this summer. But now it is getting electricity soon. Everyone is helping with the trench to lay the cable. Thanks to all who are lending their muscles to the project!
Last week, I brought all my painting stuff into the dining room to paint in the AC. Here's a little painting I started while teaching at John C. Campbell Folk School in May. They have the most beautiful, lovingly made elements all over the campus. Here's a hand forged gate near the garden we painted. Every day the same bird joined us from his perch on the curve of metal. He preened, we painted, the wind fluttered through our gazebo cooling brows knit in concentration. Ahhhh what a week. One of my students already has dibs on the painting.
