| Sunsets I Have Seen, Shell Beach Onset |
I've decided to paint one more sunset for the Marion Art Center Holiday Small Works. The MAC will take 4 paintings, and I had only 3 with time to do another. The House Critic and I had been to Onset for the opening ceremony of the new Boat House. From there we drove to Shell Beach for the sunset. It did not disappoint.

| Hydrangeas in Autumn, A Work in Process, 24"x36" |
After almost 3 months of preparing other works for shows, I returned to Hydrangeas in Autumn. I've adjusted the size and color of the leaves to present a more balanced composition. Currently, I'm working from the background forward. I'm about 1/2 way across the panel from the left working only those forms and shapes that sit in back of another shape. My House Critic today questioned why I would depict dying sections on some leaves. I just replied the Dutch were speaking to me from the past.
