HONEY JAR 6"X6"

OIL ON CANVAS PANEL

I took cadmium orange off my palette about a month ago to see if I could live without it. I can't! I didn't use much of it in this painting, just a few touches here and there.

My opening at Bear's Mill was Friday March 25th. Julie Clark, who owns the mill and sets up the gallery, did a wonderful job. We had a good crowd and I got to meet some new and old friends.

This is Julie on the left talking with Evie about the upcoming show schedule for the year. Evie is an artist as well as a collector.

Another photo of the gallery and a few of my paintings.

This is beautiful, Anita. I love the way you've captured such clarity in the glass. Don't give up the orange . . . you handle it so well. Good luck with the show, how exciting!
