I paint while overlooking a 5-acre pond—"our" pond for a week—on 45 acres of secluded rural land in NY state, land which aside from the tiny rustic cabin we are calling home is otherwise undeveloped.
The painting start below, a creative inquiry undertaken outdoors on a blustery summerlike afternoon at the cabin, will have been packed up, transported home, and unpacked by the time this post is published. My time away will have been embedded energetically in the paint.
