Happy New Year Art Friends

Wow, I know, you haven't heard from me in a long time.  I am fine but just not producing many finished paintings.  Nothing to talk about I guess you would say--except "Hello" to all of you, and I'm happy thinking that I'll soon be blogging again.

I am heading to Italy again this year and my side-kick, Carol, isn't going because of a different trip to Europe with her family---SO there is one (female) spot left IN CASE YOU WANT TO GO.

Painting in Veneto, Italy, Trip #1 Aug 24 - Sept 6, 2016

The area we will be staying at is about an hour from Venice, and for the first time, not in the mountains.  I'll be pleased to answer any questions you may have about the details of this trip by email.  Margaret's trips are the most amazing, totally well-planned and inexpensive, all inclusive (mostly, except sometimes the wine).  We usually paint every other day and tour the rest of the time.  I have blogged about all my trips with her, either on this blog or my adventures blog in case you want to look back to find those postings.  There is some instruction or you can be on your own.

Update:  I am still preparing to start my mural project which, so far, is going ok.  I'll start to blog about it once it gets underway.  I'm not sure whether I should think of it as "daily" art or an art "adventure".  Any comments on that?
