Pears on the Ground
These pears don't taste good, but they sure are pretty, especially in the morning light
Peter took this one of me photographing the pretty pears

Peter Needs a Bigger Studio
Paintings and frames are piling up in the studio
More, more and more
The paintings are piling up as Peter prepares for his show this November. There are also frames, lots and lots of frames. We always joke that all of our money is tied up in frames. Every free space is lined with paintings that are coming in and going out to various galleries. Soon, the studio will be empty and quiet once again. That always makes me sad, but Peter goes right back to work.

Peter Back in Action

Peter's knee surgery went well and his knee is feeling much better than it has in a long time (knock on wood). Thanks Dr. Rose!

Knee Surgery

Peter had knee surgery today at the Hospital for Special Surgery in NYC. Everything went well and hopefully he'll back in the studio in a couple of days. He can't wait!

On the Road Again
Peter thinks it always rains when we move paintings
Last week we delivered paintings to the Miller Gallery in Cincinnati, Ohio. Ten beautiful paintings moved out to the midwest looking for a home. With the help of the really great people at the Miller Gallery, they should find one.
Peter couldn't contain his excitement standing with a George Inness painting, his hero
A quick stop at the Cincinnati Museum of Art before we headed home, revealed all sorts of hidden treasures. It is a beautiful small museum that is worth a visit if you find yourself in southwestern Ohio, or northern Kentucky.

I had never seen this Van Gogh and just loved it!

Start a Blog!
The Marie Zimmerman Estate in the DWGNRA is a beautiful place for a walk
I've been a bit lazy with my blog. Summer and my ceramic sculpture explorations have taken precedence. It's time to start actively posting again. I have a few more photos from my walk at the Marie Zimmerman Estate in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area that I will be sharing in the next week or so.
The blog has been a great project for me to focus on my photography and discover what is of visual interest to me. It forces me to look and photograph at times I might not have. In the past, I always took photos, but they just went into a folder and I never did anything with them. Now it's been fun to go back and study what makes a photo a good photo and how to manipulate it in Photoshop to make it even better.
It's hard to believe that this is my 120nd posting. The blog has been a great tool for learning and a great tool for doing -- I strongly recommend starting one!
