Good exercise when you are starting up again after a “pause.” Grab anything that excites you, sketch it out with non-dominant hand for about ten minutes, take a red, a blue, a yellow with white and just paint.

Going into my studio, painting what I find beautiful, is a tonic. Here I’ve painted my love for the airiness, color, wildness of sweet peas, their entrancing tendrils. They’re called “sweet” for their lovely fragrance. “Sweet pea time,” 20x16”. Oil Available

World Book Day and the day in Catalunya when they combine culture and romanticism: gifts of books and roses. Feliç Sant Jordi!🌹🌹🌹 Here's some images from today's morning walk.

I'm definitely feeling the influence of my surroundings. Vilanova celebrates Carnival for two weeks. Each corner of the town is decorated and every event seems more colorful and exuberant than the last. “Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen.” Robert Breslin

Finished this today. Exploring pushing color to point where hopefully not garish but interesting and lively without blending. “No regrets,” oil on gessoboard, 12x9” Feedback welcomed😘

The intention was alla prima, but I still am timid about putting down enough paint in one session. I am pleased that I did not blend and many of the places I put down paint on the first go still remain.

Sorolla was in my studio today guiding me in alla prima. Limited palette: white, black, burnt sienna, burnt umber, yellow ochre. Very quick, striving for the essential. Not a master copy but the master was definitely the inspiration. "A mi amigo Manolo," Joaquín Sorolla, 1899
