Have you ever just cut up images and re assembled them? That is what I did here on the computer.It was a lot of fun to see what I could come up with. So I thought I would post it, also, just for fun. Let me know what you think.

NOT A WAY TO START OUT THE YEAR

A terrific cold. I must have caught the bug at Frank I Laurie's new years party, because she got it as well. But I just got back into the studio and I am not going to let that stop me. Christmas is hard enough to get work done and I need to get to work now.

I was invited to have a piece of my art work in the Lake Oswego Visual Chronicle this year during Art Festival in June. It is an honor to be invited. The only requirement is that it in some way relate to Lake Oswego and or it's people. It is a chellenge to do something that is fresh and exciting. The city usually purchases one of the pieces for there permanent art collection.

BACK TO THE DRAWING PAD

It's so nece to get back into the studio and loosen up the fingers, do a little drawing to get ready to paint. It's always surprising, like any exercize, one needs to practice constantly, or you start to get rusty. So after a dozen drawings I am beginning to feel loosened up a bit. Just thought I would post a couple of them for you to see.
