Up and Running

I've been telling myself it's time for a blog for quite a few months now. Well, here it is... a rainy, cool September morning, not much light for painting but good weather for computer work.

Occasionally I sell a photo or two in a gallery or gift shop or to a friend, but really, it's what I use for inspiring paintings or jewelry.
