i spy with my little eye

i spy with my little eye...

hmmm, could that be the sun making an appearance this morning?

and with that sentiment in mind -

It is never too late to be what you might have been.

George  Eliot

i will sharply reprimand the sun and give him that encouragement to show up here more often.
but the same could be said of me and showing up in the studio.
 so in that spirit,

you can now find me most of these summer days painting away at my art desk
as i have finally given up
(or stuffed)
my fear 
and i will be having my own booth 
at the Sammamish Art Fair in October.

 the tools are ready

the painting, including the joys and the frustrations have begun.
i have started 30,
yep you heard me right,
30 paintings.

yikes
i spy with my little eye -
30 boards and canvases perched around the room

and a happy little dog at my feet.
i promise to share the process here my friends.
happy painting to you this fine summer day
and please mr. sun,
i would like you to stay, just for a little while.
