Peach Blue-Rimmed Bowl and Art

Still life on a sheet of glass: a card of test color strokes tucked under a bowl's edge, it's blue rim embracing the two halves of peach, nestled together as if seeking reunion.
Listening to the soothing slack key melodies of Danny Carvalho as I paint this. Thanks Danny, for the peace of mind.

Leaving Arizona 2

Cumulus clouds, like old souls, move majestically over the land as if called by God to their next destination, their shadows gently touching earthbound mortals.
This painting is a view from the plane as we lifted above the highlands north and east of Phoenix, returning to Connecticut.

Discombobulation

A fourth trip to Phoenix to tend to family, paints left back in the studio.
Missed photo ops: fanatastic sunsets, the effects of monsoon rains,
kids playing touch football in flooded school yards.
I have nothing to say but color and stroke.
