I've been busy painting, and traveling, and watching the Olympics! We had booked the cruise so it wouldn't interfere with the games. We had a wonderful time in the west Carribean, got some sun, took a ton of pictures, zip-lined, snorkeled, saw some Mayan ruins, got some more sun....and the food! I have some very nice tropical pictures that I could use as reference material, but almost find it too cliche to use. Not too many people want tropical themes unless they can actually relate to it personally, I would think. I'll probably do a couple, just for the sake of variety, which I like. Nothing worse than an artist who only sticks to one theme - they end up all looking alike, boring.
The garden is starting to call, and I realize I better get painting before I really do need to get outside. This year the pressure is on because my garden is on the Garden Tour in June. Pressure!
Before that however, I'm on a trip of my dreams... of inspiration... to see Amsterdam, and Paris again, plus a little detour to explore Normandy. I know there will be tons of subject matter from that, so I better get busy on my current ideas.
