New Painting, a work in progress

I have finished blocking in the blueberry topping of my cheesecake painting today.

Grey and Cheeto are posing with it. Both of them like blueberry cheesecake!

Work in progress

This is a work in progress shot of my new painting I am working on, it's shrimp cocktail. I had to make a new studio inside today, because the heat was just to much outside. I plan to paint a few hours outdoors early in the morning to take advantage of the natural sunlight before the heat escalates and then move inside. My husband is going to install track lighting for me to try to improve my indoor lighting.

Palmetto People

I was interviewed this morning about my paintings for a television show, Palmetto People.
It was a pleasure to meet hosts Richard Green and Mary Anne Jacobs and thier great crew!
