Moonlit Tree oil painting

It took a long time to finish this Moonlit Tree oil painting, what with re-arranging stuff in the studio, getting ready for my niece's wedding and my daughter's graduation. It took a while, but I'm finally happy with it. A soft moon behind a gnarled tree on a deep blue night.

It's been a busy time with my son Cerulean's end of school year activities,

my niece Celine's wedding (she also graduated from Vet school),

 and my daughter Celadon's graduation from Cardozo Law School in NYC.

And the contractor installed a utility sink in my basement studio! What a difference running water in the studio makes. Silk painting classes have started on both Saturdays and Sundays. 

Silk Dye Painting Classes Start in June

Saturdays June 23 for 7 weeks 10:30am - 2:30pm

or

Sundays June 10 for 7 weeks 12:00noon - 4:00pm

Seeing the Light Abstract Oil Painting

This is a 24" x 36" abstract oil painting depicting the emotional turmoil in one's life that twists and turns, but seeing and knowing that there is the lightness beyond all this underneath it all.  The turmoil and the emotions move through life, fluxing and undulating but the lightness of being is always there in the background helping dissolve the negativity. Let the emotions pass through knowing that they are just doing that - passing through.

Sashiko Workshop Coming Up

I'll be teaching a basic Sashiko workshop at Intown Quilters in Atlanta January 29th Sunday.

We'll be hand stitching simple cell phone or eyeglass cases

with Sashiko stitching and adding little strips of Japanese print fabric for embellishment,

or in my case, to cover those spots I messed up - we call that design opportunity.

Come join me for the fun!
