Just Plain Art

My art home on the web is Just Plain Art and it was born on a rainy Friday afternoon, March 31, 2006 . I was inspired to explore doing a blog by the art quilters in the Pointless Sisters Art Quilt Group in Sonoma County. I'm in Northern California wine country and am capturing the beauty of my rural home in my paintings and art quilts.
This blog is more about what I see than what I write. Lots of photos of my work and some comments about my art and life.
This is one of my first painting of a cabin near the village of Freestone in Sonoma County. After this I continued to paint trees and landscapes and eventually found my way to a Petaluma artist, Camille Przewodek. Working with a master colorist and landscape painter has convinced me that I want to capture the uniqueness of my world in my art work.
