Nice to hear from you. Glad you're all settled in and sounds like you have a wonderful spot...especially for painting! Are getting lots of painting done? Our Christmas supper is Dec. 11th if you get a chance to be in the area.
Post some of your recent work,would luv to see what you're up to.
Think you said before you had joined an art group out that way. Do you happen to know a Rosemary Freeman in your art travels?
