I still have Theo’s amazing drawing tacked up downstairs in my studio. I am working on a large painting based on the drawing. Here are some of the ideas.
PS I am a day late in making this post as we are now ALL sick with the flu..

Hooray! The jasmine I planted a year ago has finally decided to take off! It’s climbing and beginning to bloom!

Today is hot, and it seems natural that the end of the day might be marked by a big thunderstorm. Instead, we’ll have fog. It’s dramatic to watch the fog rushing overhead in the late afternoon, but I miss the anticipation and quiet as the skies darken before a big summer thunderstorm.

I am working on a tree series for the 100 paintings project…having some trouble so this seemed a good place to work out some issues.

Everywhere I went today I kept driving in and out of the fog. A brilliantly beautiful day in one neighborhood gave way to a cool, damp windy one in another. I love the constant changes as I navigate through the city….
