Busy spring...

Every year I forget how busy Spring can be! I guess for avid gardeners such as myself, this is THE time of year for us! I've been really busy planting this year. I'm planting more vegetables than ever- if I cuts down my grocery store trips...Yay!
Now that my large motorcycle painting is done, it's been time to concentrate on smaller paintings. This tulip was growing in my front flower bed- surrounded by evergreens and other plants, or else it would have been devoured by deer! These little flower studies are fun. If I wasn't such a computer simpleton, I would have added another tulip painting I've done on the blog, but I'm not sure how! More to learn!
I've done a number of smaller paintings that I hope will help to boost sales this year. I have no idea what effect this stellar economy will have on sales at the outdoor shows this year. I will "report" on the shows...the sales, the crowds, etc. Would love to hear from other artists as well.
