It's nice to hold a real pencil. Stabilo on animation paper, about 10x15".

weather sketchbook

The L.A. Times has streamlined it's weather page and these great little paragraphs will no longer be printed. This is the last one. I didn't know of that when I painted the dying oleander blossoms. The blossoms are almost more beautiful when they lay on the ground at the foot of the plant. What I like is the poetry of the headline. It's the headline that is gone.......

Studio shot

Yes, I am painting. I am working on this watercolor of olive branches. An Italy painting in progress. I'm almost finished with a freelance project for Disney Publishing and then will dive into the studio. Am working at least 2 hours every morning on this. Thanks for checking and wondering.......
