Instead of making pies

This morning I noticed the bowl of lemons glowing in a red bowl at my window sill and thought, " I need to paint those."  And then I thought, " Hmm I wonder if there are still any plums and blackberries growing in the community garden because another pie sure sounds good to me."  There were a lot of fallen, over ripe plums on the ground and plenty in the tree, and tons of blackberries and even a few pears so I gathered them up, picked some poke on the trail  and brought everything home and dumped them out on the counter.  Again, I thought, " they look so pretty there with the muted light coming in through the east window."  So of course, before I could turn them into a pie, they had to be painted.
Here's the result:

Equality Center Fundraiser on Thursday night

Planning a fun evening tomorrow..... Equality Center fundraiser has 3 of my pieces.... a couple of nudes and a portrait. Anyone hoping to own some lovely art AND support a good cause, this is your moment. Speaking of good causes... another fundraiser at AHHA to benefit the Art and Healing program at Hillcrest Hospital. We are doing a Pinot's Pallet kind of thing with hospital staff. We did it a few months ago and folks had so much fun we decided to do it again. Of course anyone who wished to donate to that great cause can always do so through the Arts and Humanities Council. Earmark your gift for the Art and Healing program and the Doctors of Hillcrest will match it twice!
