Back In Bittinger MD

Alan and I returned home a week ago.  The past week was hectic.  The first two days I was home, we rehung the Gallery at 206 E Alder Street after it had been painted and freshened up.   It looks terrific for the summer season.  Then I spent two days taking a painting workshop sponsored by the Western Maryland Watercolor Society.   David Daniels was the instructor, and despite the fact I had taken 3 workshops from Dave in the past, he had a lot of new information and suggestions.   It was great fun to be with him again.
While we were in Italy and Holland I didn't do any painting but drew a lot.  
The day we saw Michelangelo's David was particularily  moving and inspiring.  I couldn't resist hauling out my  pencil and giving it a try. 

I am not thrilled with the piece I did in Dave Daniel's workshop.  I post just to prove I am still painting. This piece is, as they say, "is a work in progress". I love the colors. And that is Dave's strong suit. . .color.
