Whiskey Barrel of Summer Flowers



My mom likes whiskey barrels brimming with flowers and herbs. The pop of flowers in the shade, and the white wood of the fence drew me to paint this corner of my moms garden. That was summer...and now it is fall. A much different palette.

Gowanus Morning


Been quite a while since I posted on my blog! Today's painting is on the heels of the Gowanus Open Studio weekend (past) and while the light was good and my morning was free, I biked over to 8th St/3rd Ave and painted this corner of Gowanus. It felt good and freeing to paint again! Beautiful day to paint outdoors. Location-wise, this section of Brooklyn—factories, warehouses and studio buildings— is excellent subject matter, to a girl on her bike toting easel and paints...

For those that came out to visit it was great to see you. Next years Opening will be even better!
