I can't believe how long it's been since I've posted a new blog entry.
Why is that?
I've been busy....busy painting, mostly.
Also, I've had cataract surgery which kept me from painting for about 18 and 1/2 hours, but that's all.
Spring arrived in Tucson, so I've done some yard work.
Between hubby and me, there's been an unusual number of doctor's appointments...don't like those. :(
Taxes had to get done.
Stuff. I don't remember everything...just 'stuff.'
But, mostly, I've been 'cloistered' in my studio...just me and my paints.
A couple of days ago, I got inspired by an incredible artist to have another go at painting with a knife. So, yesterday and today, that's all I've done.
I will share the link to her site and I really hope you all go have a look at her incredible work!

In my dreams, I could paint like she does. But, I probably should just stick to painting like I do...even if I am trying out something new.
So, here's what I came up with.
The first one, I am calling Roses and Daisies. It's on a 9 x 11 canvas....done almost ecxlusively with a knife. Sometimes, I just had to dance with my brush. That's a partner I'm used to.
I enjoyed doing that one so much, I had to give it another try. This one is also an 11" x 14" canvas and, as yet, has no name.
I might need to do a tad more work on this one, but, it's pretty close to finished, I think.
As always, I am so grateful for the gift of painting. It has enriched my life beyond belief!

Thanks, ladies....
Joye, I was painting the very next day after surgery. :)
