Her Self

This self portrait is from a plein air painting excursion on the coast of Maine last year. Wasn't sure I'd ever paint it, but it was one of those photos (thanks to my friend Bruce McMillan) that sat in my file for a while and just begged to be painted one day recently.

    Of course, you had to paint it and am so glad you did. I can't seem to get enough of the vibrant reds you use. Carolina

    Your love of what you are doing even comes through in this-with your contented expression. I really like the way you handled the shirt and apron, beautifully done.
