SURPRISE IN PUGET SOUND
I think that with a blog I can show experimental pieces: if I had a web site I would need to have pieces that are finished. I see more possibilities with this image.
GURGLE 1
Monotype, playing with ink thicknesses and movement. I like this beginning. Not sure yet where to take it from here.
BRIDGE TO NOWHERE
Monotype, second printing on a Gurgle background. I find that the Charbonnel inks dry quite a bit darker
when dry.

TREASURES TO COME
I go to a master class once a month, with a wonderful, inspirational artist, Bill McEnroe. The assignment during class, was to paint a landscape with any medium, changing colors every 2 inches. And the colors should not be realistic. This was done in under an hour, because I had to walk Mangus. Well actually, I think I just wanted to stop myself from diddling with it further. Gay abandon, once might say. So I came home energized to try it again.

FERRY IN FOG
The other day we had a break from the rain and it became foggy. We saw the Bainbridge/Seattle ferry appearing out of the fog and the light was magic. I had to see what I could do with a monotype. Not quite the feel I wanted but I am sure to try this again.
MANGUS
It is a bit difficult to paint a black dog, at least I think so. And anyway this oil pastel is more fun.
