We got back from New Mexico and hit the ground running, at least that is what it feels like.
I have been busy with things around here, digging out wretched thistle, hoping it doesn't get a solid foothold in the yard. We have been fortunate enough to get tons of rain this spring; living in the second driest state in the nation, I try, never to complain about any moisture we receive. It is more reminiscent of a green jungle outside than a high desert.
But I digress, besides the rapidly over growing state my yard is in, I have been walking the dogs, when it hasn't been too soggy outside and painting up a storm or two in the studio. Actually I finished two animal portraits and have begun sketches on a third this week.

 "Hannah" |  "Young Giraffe" |
"Missy", this is a trade I am working on with an artist I met in Chimayo, New Mexico. She is a tin artist, Sharon Candelario.
 This is the piece I am trading a portrait of Missy for. This is one of my preliminary sketches. |  |
