Recently, I have had so many kind comments about my work from collectors and web visitors. Thank you all so much! I, like many artists I know, spend long hours in the studio painting, hoping the work will be received well at it’s final exhibition or showing place. I am very appreciative of your supportive words.
I have had a bit more enthusiasm to paint lately - which of course leads to faster results in the studio. 
When surrounded by deadlines, it is not uncommon to paint for 12 to 15 hours per day with a few breaks. This schedule does get to be tiresome after a while. Of course, if the painting is going well, you don’t notice that you’ve been sitting at the easel for 5 hours — except for the fact that one or two limbs have dosed off. I suppose it’s the kind of job that you have to love, which I do deeply. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I love being able to speak through my paintings, share the magic I see around me & things that inspire me — hopefully helping others to see those things around them as well, even after I’m gone.
My commissioned artwork for Harvard University is now in it’s final stages of adjustments. I also hope to get to that point with the commission of Samantha, the great horned owl, soon. I have a fair number of commissioned pieces requested over the next year or so. I will be posting the paintings on my studio’s commissions page as I begin the paintings.
