I have to admit that I've been woefully inattentive to this blog. I've been very distracted by Facebook and my artist page there; getting "fans" on FB has been a new source of positive feedback!

This one of the Gowanus Canal is actually inspired by the cloud reflections.  Not easy to get them like on the Canal on a calm day. I also decided to skip posting "works in progress" in a separate section and just include them in my regular posts. So, here's how my Canal painting has developed:

I've got a few things to touch up before I deem it "finished." Will keep you posted!
