Well, I like to start out the new year with 30 paintings in 30 days.  I am way behind schedule.  I have been dog and house sitting for my son and his wife while they vacationed in Mexico.  It was a mini vacation for me but I didn’t do any painting.  I did sign up for an on line photography class.  It is about time I learn how to use my DSRL cammera and my Cannon Power Shot.  That should translate into some great paintings in the year to come.

Right now I am struggling with a painting of strawberries on black steel.  I like how the strawberries look and the stargazer lily but the reflections are keeping me awake at night.  Here is how this painting looks so far.
