Hello, my friends! It's good to be back. I've been out of the studio for a few days, enjoying the celebration of Christmas. I've actually spent most of the last two days in the kitchen - a rarity for me. It was good to know that I haven't forgotten how to cook! We had a houseful yesterday. My wonderful son, Michael, turned twenty, so a birthday celebration always immediately follows Christmas.
Before the holidays, I had started a painting that I was finally able to finish this morning. It's primarily an abstract work, with suggestions of realism. I didn't have a particular plan in mind when I began. I just allowed it to evolve naturally.

I wish you peace and contentment as this year comes to a close.
Until next time,
