Good morning! Despite the grunge I have been painting. This beauty was inspired by a gentleman named FLAMMY from Tennessee. It is out of the norm for me, but I enjoyed painting it! Smooth brushwork with the freedom of impressionism.
Foggy outside this morning. As I sent Terry off to work early I rubbed my eyes in disbelief at the loss of visual outside...pretty thick fog. He promised to phone me when he arrived at the airport hanger. MEANWHILE I am painting and playing catch up.
I spent an hour on the Mac last night building my web site and catching it up. Not quite my favorite, but it will be easy to update and maintain. Check it out. www.ellepace.com
I will be inserting more things as we go as well and tweaking it to be where I want it.
I have had such fun with Charlene up north as I have adjusted to my MAC. She keeps me updated and abreast of so many things. John, a Mac user, and myself are trying to convince her to drop the HP that continues to bog down and switch to the MAC. I drug my feet for 8 years and it may take me that long to pay this one off...I bought the big MAMA in the group. She is fast and hopefully my friend for many years. The SONY PC I had died after 18 months and it was a huge machine. Terry is constantly amazed at how many dead PC's we have accumulated in the past five years....They are all out in the garage.
Well, must get to three tasks today. Not teaching because it is Spring Break, but doing wash, designing the web site www.thepaintedpony.net, and painting . The Painted Pony is my Horse web site that corresponds with my book. I put one out annually now with favorite horses from the year. Think the easel will find a horizon horse scene and a new rooster...still preparing to prepare for the 3 by 4 ft rooster I have to paint next month.
FORGOT to mention about Jill Saur, an artist/gallery owner/teacher from Georgia. We had a delightful visit yesterday...we could have enjoyed tea and lunch together on the phone! Much to exchange and share and a promise to support each other in our journey to spread the gift of art to others. I have encountered hundreds of artists, but to find another active teaching studio/art studio is rare. Jill may enter the jungle of eBay soon with her work. Her web site is: www.artriverstudio.com
Grace to all, Have a great Thursday.
Laurie

AND I am in the process of changing over to MAC also. It's a (late) Christmas present from my hubby! It's had it's moments, but it is SO much faster! I think I'm gonna love it once I get used to it! Best wishes on the switcheroo!
