Nature Trips

Jay Leno, 16"x20" oil on canvas























Dear Beautiful Art Friends,

I've been spending a lot of time in nature and loving it! Had a wonderful birthday, spent it in the Lake Arrowhead/Big Bear area.  There is nothing like nature to feel energized and inspired.

When I am done with this blog post, I need to pack as I'm heading to Northern California to spend more time with the Redwood forest, Santa Cruz to Big Sur area and back to San Francisco. So looking forward to this time away and meeting my son for a few days.

I've been busy painting realistic paintings. I'm currently working on one of Jay Leno. I don't know why I chose to paint him, but I wanted to do one with him for almost a year. He seems like such a nice fellow, perhaps to thank him for so many laughs from his time on The Tonight Show, and now that he has a new show about cars, which I so enjoy, I guess I felt it was time. Having a hard time capturing his features which is great! This means it's a challenge for me, and it feels good to challenge myself.

I do have three abstract artworks at the La Jolla Senior Center and four abstract artworks at 57 Degrees in San Diego. Do stop by and take a long if you are in the area.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

With much love,
Glad
