Opening tomorrow

I haven't posted a new blog in quite a while.  I finished "Sonny Boy", a nine month project, and last month completed "Winter".  

Winter is actually the name of the White Pelican I painted who lives at WildCare, but the color and feel of the painting reflects the name as well.  A beautiful bird with a gentle spirit.  The painting will be on view at Pelican Studio in Point Reyes Station.

I've been preparing for my show at Pelican Studio for the past month.  Pelican Studio is now occupying the space where William Lester Gallery had been for over 10 years.  I sat in my studio today and wondered if the rain would keep everyone away from the event tomorrow.

I have two new works to think about.  Again WildCare gave me the inspiration for a new work of a Peregrine Falcon, set against a billowing, clouded sky.  And the next is another Great Egret.
