see the article below from today's NY times which explains how investors are using the art market in ways that undermine museums and serious collectors. The art market has always been based in 19th century traditions of trust. Obviously that is now over.

New painting
I wanted to move away from traditional watercolor paper and found this beautiful handmade paper. I used the back, which has no sizing, so it absorbed a ridiculous amount of paint. Since I was moving away from some of the constraints of traditional watercolor technique, I added white and black which really made it pop.

Winslow Homer watercolors
I wish I could have seen the exhibit of Winslow Homer watercolors at the Art Institute of Chicago through May 11th. However, their web site has an in depth look at Winslow Homer's watercolor technique and countless interesting details. I have added it to my list of fave sites on the right or you can cut and paste:

Opening Day
New work and a new direction I am feeling good about. Bolder and larger. It will be in an exhibit at the Art Students League of Denver, 2nd floor gallery from April 29-May 16th.
