In Mom's Memory




My Mom passed away a week ago last Thur. and I have been debating weather or not to mention her in my blog. Mom was also an avid artist and had a great deal to do with me becoming an artist, so I figured it would be good to remember her here. She liked to draw, paint, quilt, as well as other creative things. When we were kids fidgeting in church, she would draw pictures for us to keep us entertained and most importantly, quite during the service.  I remember being mesmerised watching figures appear on paper off the tip of her pencil. She thought she was just keeping us kids quite during Dad's sermon, but I believe it was the start of the lasting impact she had on my artistic life. She as well as Dad have always been so encouraging when it came to my art. Thank you Mom, Your art continues through me.

We are flying back to Ohio this morning, So this weeks post is early. Here are this weeks paintings and one drawing. No time for discriptions. So, until next week...
