Tea Time

SOLD

I didn't paint our cute little cabin in Napa, but I did capture a bit of the charming courtyard that was out back. After a chilly morning, tea in this sheltered area led to an afternoon painting. The light was hitting it just perfectly!

Towering Eucalyptus

SOLD

This stand of Eucalyptus trees was just down the hill from our cabin in Napa. Some friendly cows kept walking and snorting all around me, but none of them would go sit under the trees for me. I think they were more interested in the smell of the oil paint and in figuring out what I was doing there! 

As I was hard at work, a new friend from the conference came along and took this picture of me... Thanks Deb!

Misty Vineyard

This fall has become a crazy time of travel for us... all good things, but crazy nonetheless! :) This past week, I had the good fortune of accompanying my husband to a conference in Napa Valley, CA. We were in the heart of the wine country and since he was in meetings, well, you know what I did! These rolling hills of vineyards were right outside our cottage door! Quite divine!
