Italy 2009

We had a wonderful trip to Italy in April 2009. I taught for Truecolors in Vittorio Veneto with Sabrina. Larry and I had a great trip and spend time in Venice and Florence as well. Loved it all... and plan to go back with my daughter Kristie this coming April.

Here are some photos along the way

Gran's Gallery

New book is on the way.... Was shipped Aug 5, and will take about a week to get here. I will put up more pages as soon as I have them and can get them to Kathy. She sure does a great job with my web site.

The cover is bautiful .... Camille and Kim have done a bang up job as always... I just love it and I can't wait to see the inside too.

England Trip & Chelsea Flower Show 2008

We had a wonderful trip to England to visit and teach for my friend Dian Harrison.  It was so much fun seeing old friends and making new ones of the painters in England.  I always love the English countryside and enjoy visiting some wonderful old houses and gardens.  The Chelsea Flower Show was a special treat never to be forgotten.
