Inspiration

This is the time of year when I start to look for inspiration for upcoming paintings and projects.  I sometimes get stuck in a rut and have to get my brain going on something inspiring to get the good thoughts flowing.  I seldom if ever find a lack of inspiration with old tractors and trucks.  Here is a nice example of an inspired, orange, hand cranked, iron tired, beast of burden, that worked hard, and has been restored to majestic brilliance.  A very good example of an Alice Chalmers

I may not end up painting a tractor, but the image will get my brain happy so I can move on to the next painting happy, hopeful, and ready to use some cad orange.

Long time no post

It has been awhile since I posted anything on this blog.  I had a bit of a busy time this past fall.  Just to let you know there is a show hanging in park City at Gallery Mar.  It is a strong show with Mary Scrimgeour and Myself.  If you are up there give it a look see.
