*********************

For the past several months I have been experimenting with new subject matter and a somewhat different style. I have been painting on site as well as taking and using a lot of photographs. I have also been playing around with new canvas shapes.

********************

I believe trying out new ideas thru new styles and new subject matter can be very stimulating creatively. I am thoroughly enjoying the new challenges presented by both.....am looking forward to hearing what you have to say about it....
