May of 2013 I was contacted by an Etsy customer to paint this painting via a photograph that he sent to me.  I shipped the painting but he decided he didn't want it so shipped it back.  I'm happy to say that it's now on it's way to a new home in Boston, Massachusetts where I'm sure it will look lovely in a new home.  I'm always happy when one of my creations goes to a new home.  I'm looking forward to spring and warmer weather so I might get outside to paint plain air soon.

Well today is the first day of spring but it's snowing!  I sure do hope it arrives soon.  This has been a long winter.  I can't wait to see the flowers blooming and the trees.   I wish winter only came around once every four years like leap day.  At least I can paint spring!  I hope you enjoy this little bit of color and light.

Spring Tulips.  At this point we are all wishing and hoping for spring to arrive.  I decided to bring it into my gallery by painting these lovely tulips.  They are a very impressionistic style.  I'm happy with how they turned out.  I put the paint on thick with large brush strokes.  Here's hoping that they bring the warmer weather soon!
