This was probably my most productive week ever! Thanks to nearly perfect weather all week, I was able to really dedicate myself to painting every day.

THRIVE
Acrylic and oil pastel, 16 x 20 inches
And today (Friday) I worked on a larger canvas that is still a work in progress. I like the movement and larger, gestural swatches of color. I still want to keep working on this one, but hopefully I won't overwork it and lose some of that initial energy. Working on this piece makes me realize how much I want to work exclusively on larger scale canvases right now.

I'll be spending the weekend with my family so everything has been put on pause until Monday. I hope you enjoy your weekend and Happy Spring!
