"Taunting The Sea" ©


It's time to hang my "Gone Painting" shingle once again. I am headed to the north east area of Yosemite National Park. California Art Club Gold Medal/Signature artist Charles Waldman will be leading a workshop that I will join while there. A workshop event saves you time scouting locations, provides a "tribe" that looks out for one another, promotes safety in numbers and gives an artist an opportunity to learn from all the other artists participating. I always make new friendships that last long after the workshop is over. I will return on August 11th with a box full of wet canvases to share with you. Meanwhile, here is another view of the "Sand Dancer" as she was "Taunting The Sea".

Hey, Laura! I like your little one dancing with the waves. Luscious and sunny!

This may seem idiotic, but it's heartfelt: I've nominated you for the Brillante Weblog Premio. Now, I know it's a hoax, but it also seems to me that it can still take on the meaning WE give it; and as it meant a LOT to me being nominated by Dean H., I have nominated some artists whose work I like a lot.

You can read about it on my Art Blog if you want, and pass it on or not, as you choose. Just wanted to let you know how much I like your work.

Thanks Eileen, I'll take whatever I can get! I checked out your paintings and am very glad to have been introduced to your work. Welcome to blogging and I'll keep an eye on your paintings. Thank you for connecting and the "nomination". Laura
