Song quote and art of the day.

,

                                                     And here, she's acting happy,
                                                      Inside her handsome home.
                                                     And me, I'm flying in my taxi,
                                                   Taking tips, and getting stoned~Harry Chapin -Taxi

 

I have always loved this song.  Thanks for stopping by.  Catherine

art and quote of the day.......

Home is a place not only of strong affections, but of entire unreserve; it is life's undress rehearsal, its backroom, its dressing room. ~Harriet Beecher Stowe

 

While cleaning up the folders on my computer I came across this commission I did in the fall of 2011.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.  Catherine

On my easel

This is what I've been working on lately.  A large piece 36x48 canvas.  I must admit I'm getting some inspiration from Downton Abbey.  You may recognize the black Chinoiserie type high boy bureau on the right and the wall color.    I still have a long way to go with this piece but so far I am quite pleased with the progress.  It's my  Roman version of a Downton Abbey! Thanks for stopping by.

I am continuing to work on a rather large piece this week.  I will most likely post another image of my progress at the end of the day today.  This was a favorite painting I did last year around this time.  Thanks for stopping by.  Catherine
