Ok, so I have too been tagged by 2 artists, I didn't mean to be slow about it. It just seems that there are a BILLION things to be done in one day/week. Like paint... : )

The artists who tagged me are a talented architect/artist Elizabeth Floyd and Mike Rooney, who was just published in a new book about plein air painting, thank you, I appreciate very much being tagged.

The rules of being tagged are:
1. Link to person who tagged you
2. Mention the rules
3. List 6 or 7 unusual things about yourself or quirky but boring, unspectacular details about yourself
4. Tag 6 or 7 other bloggers at the end of your post and comment on their blogs to let them know they've been tagged

Here goes:
1. I love my ipod. I mostly listen to music, but also books.
2. My studio is very SMALL. People walk into it and say, wow this just proves you don't have to have a large studio to paint.
3. I am intrigued by marketing my artwork. I can't say that I know what I'm doing, but it is interesting.
4. I love my car too. It's a subaru outback, good for plein air painting and hauling paintings around. I hope subaru will make an outback hybrid or something like that in the future.
5. I have a dog.
6. I do yoga.

Tag 6 or 7 bloggers ( I don't know if these people have already been tagged) I guess if you have already been tagged, you just ignore the tag?

One Persimmon - SOLD

I like to really discover a subject sometimes, just paint it several times until I feel like I know it very well. I might have to go to the store and get more persimmons to paint, these are getting a little mushy.

Persimmon - sold

It seems like each season has interesting fruit for painting. Persimmons are a nice, fallish orange. On this painting, I was paying particular attention to forms and the relationship of the shadows and values. Really not so much color, the color just sort of happens, if you concentrate on values.
