Sky and Water and Too Popular

We do actually have a sign that says Too Popular, and it is fun to hold.

Kedrin is very good at holding the sign.

Back again...

It's so easy to get to the wildlife refuge after work!

I walked around for a long time today to scope the place out, so only had time for a small painting.

6x8 oil

It only took me 17 years...............

I'm really slow.

17 years.

That's how long it took me to actually go to the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge.

It's right on the bus route right before Far Rockaway, and the bus is right near my apartment.

I have, in fact, known about the refuge but maybe I didn't realize you could go in it, until my friend told me.

Obviously I need to go there and paint.

It is GORGEOUS.
And... empty! Well, people-empty, mostly.
Which is wonderful!

8x10 oil

From Italy

I am not in Italy, unfortunately, but Daya is. 

She's in a dance intensive called Orsollina.
She left on Saturday for 2 weeks.

Here are 2 pictures she sent me...that's all the update I have!

I would be painting every second if I was there!
