Inspiration







While in Texas this winter, I got a chance to see the new installation of AUSTIN by Ellsworth Kelly. He gifted the design concept for this monumental work to the Blanton Museum and even though it was a cloudy day when I visited, the space was very moving and eerily like a chapel. In the museum were extensive paintings, drawings and plans for the installation which were incredibly fascinating. If you go to Austin, it's part of the permanent exhibit and not to be missed.

Mc Kinney Falls State Park

I painted this over the course of two afternoons looking at the trees in this amazing state park just outside of Austin. This was our campsite view for 4 nights!
