"Yucca Springtime" 6" X 8" Pastel

Here, in southern Arizona the yuccas have blossomed in abundance this Spring. There are so many huge blossoms on each stalk that often the weight will cause them to droop. All this without much rain this winter. Shows me once again how tough and hardy these desert plants are.

"See-Through" 12" X 12" Oil on panel






The first time I thought I was "finished" with this painting I looked at the plain purple runner and thought it needed something. I decided to put some subtle polka-dots - hopefully, subtle enough not to distract from the other elements.
P.S. I have really been having some Blogger trouble. They were able to fix whatever it was that wouldn't allow me to post or edit or look at data, but getting this post on was a challenge as well. Sometimes, it's unresponsive to me and just goes blank. I'll contact Blogger again, and maybe it'll be a fast fix. Ya think?

"A Shore Thing" 6" X 12" Oil on panel


One of the many seagulls strolling the beach on Monterey Bay. I loved the numerous colors found in the water's edge as the waves rolled in.
