Emerging from winter hibernation

Every summer I’m busy as a bee, running back and forth to set up my artwork at outdoor exhibits in Chatham, Eastham, and Dennis, preparing for shows such as the Cahoon Brushoff in Cotuit, and taking photos for future paintings. In winter, I become more like a bear in hibernation. Unlike a bear, I don’t… read more

After so many months with just the grays and browns of winter and early spring, the colors of the spring flowers are a welcome sight.
