"Stepping Out" and "Hilton Head Happy Hour" Paintings Finished

"Stepping Out," oil, 30"h x 24"w, copyright Jill Banks 2012

Big day today. I finished two paintings. Although both were started earlier, it's still amazing that I could get "happy" with two in one day. That might be a first.

Because that was a whole lot of painting, this is it for the typing.
