Welcome to my Art Blog! I paint or draw most weekdays and sometimes finish a painting a day. I fondly call them my "Postcards from Paradise" because it's such a beautiful place the Lord made here for us.

Dramatic weather is a challenge to capture, especially with fleeting effects of rain.

Mary: We do live in such an amazing place, don't we!? I loved the drama of this scene. And I really like your description... "stunner" makes me smile.

Diane: Thank you! The unveiling is not until July 14, but I will try to get someone to take some pictures. I appreciate the reminder.
