It seems like these days, everyone has a blog. Like Penelope Dullaghan, the talented lady who put together illustration friday, and one of my favorite artists, Carson Ellis. And flavorpill seems to have a knack for featuring some really amazing work ~ paintings by the infamous couple kozyndan and another artistically inclined duo, Thukral and Tagra. Wow.

Speaking of drawing, with the temperatures soaring over here in New York, it was the perfect afternoon to sit in the shaded and air-conditioned coolness and comfort of my studio, painting away. It’s been months since I’ve put aside time and painted ~ my mind has been really preoccupied (well, obssessed) with work. So I was really surprised at how easily the colors came together, how nicely the brushstrokes blended, and how happy and refreshed I felt as I turned a blank canvas into this new painting.
