My life has been chaos. Spring is a busy time here with the gardens. I also substituted for a friend this week and had to prepare for 2 art history courses. Then there was the day spent on campus to teach. I'm not complaining. It rained all day and the grass is turning an intense, drunken, spring green.

I'm learning quite a bit from the smaller paintings and have been putting it to use in the larger works. This is much larger than my daily paintings. The building up of layers is much more important in the larger works. It's a little like an excavation.

I am really liking the warm weather, even though the cold will return. I sat my chair out on the edge of the creek and painted. Life should always be so perfect.
