Paintings from the archives




I have been drawing in my sketchbook all day; what a luxury! I am generating ideas for a new project that I don't want to show just yet. In the meantime, here are some paintings from the past several years, all around the "Tree of Life" theme which has been a favorite subject for a long time. (See it also in the logo from the last post.) It's one of those ever-present archetypes. The painting at the top is quite large (5' x 7'), the leaves are 2' x 2', and the last is 18" x 18". These were all done pre-motherhood, ca. 2001.

  2. Hi Linda, Thanks so much. I'm glad you came by my blog again; I think maybe I have gotten the hang of posting a little more often. I am going to yours to see what you are up to. Hope all is well with you, too.
