Hi everyone!
Many of you will be checking this blog out and comparing it to the one I did last year, while living "abroad". Life isn't as interesting in Norfolk, Virginia as it was in "GB". But, it is busy. I am blessed with being able to focus on my artwork. As you read here on the main page, you will see I am affiliated with two galleries in Portsmouth, VA. I continue to receive commissions and am currently working on three...a large portrait of three children and two home portraits. But, this blog will serve in three ways: "venting for the frustrated artist", "information for local artist friends" and "showing off art". I will strive to keep the blogs brief and to post recent paintings for your enjoyment and consideration.
Thanks and take care!
Gina

Hi Gina. I visited your blog today, April 2. I really like this countryside scene you did. I like the force of the color. Best, Morna

Artist's Statement

Just paint / draw / create. Do it to please - yourself, another or many. It's the desire to create that is an enigma and yet a basic understanding in life...to be able to create something that brings forth strong emotion or releases it. Fulfillment is creating every day and heightened happiness is creating something I love that someone else loves as well.
