In closing out 2013 and looking forward to 2014 I thought I'd share a few of my favorite things (art-related of course). Please feel free to hum along...I hear Julie Andrews singing in the background! And boy was it hard to choose just a "few..."
 |
| Started the year with drawing classes from Jon Houghton |
 |
| Collage paintings, this one inspired by Patti's chickens |
 |
Art for the Pieces of 8 show:
Black & White and Read All Over |
 |
| Many afternoons learning mosaic with friend Cheri |
 |
| Painting "Healing Ceilings" for the Raleigh, NC Cancer Center |
 |
| A surprise sailing trip to celebrate 60 with my sis |
All things related to my trip to Italy but especially the graceful Umbrella Pines and the awesome feeling of standing on the Appian Way... and any day Kelly took me out to paint!
 |
The annual trip with the Pieces, this time to GA home of Phillis,
here is the barn at Washington Grass Inn |
 |
| Painting some whimsy for my DiL Alex's laundry room |
 |
Camping with my husband in our new pop-up and capturing
the scenery in oil (St Augustine area) |
 |
More eye-candy: painting chairs just for fun
and knowing they have a new life! |
".....when the bee stings, when the dog bites, when I'm feeling sad...I simply remember a few of these things and then I don't feel (crescendo....) so bad!"
With wishes for a
Colorful New Year for all of us.
Cindy
