Spring Blooms and Ballerinas

Quick post because my current to do list looks a lot like it did this morning. Oh well.

I worked for a bit on "Ballerinas I" -- the painting created last Saturday afternoon at Imagine Gallery in Franklin, Tennessee.

And, I revived a very strange looking 30-minute demo painting from yesterday's Landscape class.  We were invited to come paint at another beautiful property in Great Falls, VA -- this one with wisteria in bloom.  While these classes are exhausting, just being in these special spots is so peaceful. So inspiring.

Happy Spring!
