SPRING IS IN THE AIR…

at least in Los Angeles and I am thinking about April and how it is hands down my favorite month.April brings Spring and COLOR is everywhere…we have  Spring Break and feel warming breezes and the buds pop and our cherry blossom tree explodes. And April, just by the hair on it’s chinny chinny chin…brought me my dear sweet Phoebe Holiday.

I LOVE APRIL.

This painting is the first of 10 I will do for an upcoming show which begins in June and which I promise to tell you much more about. But as our house is topsy turvy, and in fact, I am not even in my house but cosy in a quiet hotel room, I stumbled upon this photo I took one day as I was frantically trying to get some work done. I looked up, and from behind the chair and in front of the kitchen island, wrapped in plastic and  leaning against the wall..

“April”

was peeking at me from around the chair. And just like the day I saw her and snapped the photograph that became this painting…she  stopped me in my tracks and made me smile.

and I thought…

” Never forget to let someone or something stop you in your tracks…and make you smile”

Have a Great Day…Spring and April are just around the corner……
