Hi Karen, I finally got a new computer that can handle Plein Eire! Thanks for friending me! I am going to Vermont tomorrow to meet a few artists. We have been painting the Erie Canal in Upstate New York. It is 300 miles long. Dug by shovel in the early 1800s. A few thousand Irish participated in the task. What a terrible way to ruin yourself! Bye for now, Vincent.

How are you doing girl--haven't spoken to you for a while--hope all is well and you're still getting out there--I was out of town at a paint out and missed about 10 days of back and forth on the site and am behind---sitting around with a group of Paint Annapolis painters and was sharing some of my good times with you all and realized that I missed being there with the Wexford group.
temperature just dipped today and we had a little snow where we were in the west of the state--and yes, I practically went into a coma after trying to eat my weight in food--could barely stand.
Right now I have been involved with installations at two galleries and working with a temp space--these are all member group shows--not my personal ones.
but I am touching up a painting a lady had seen on line--it had some slight surface damage and a bad frame
Usually for MFA's main gallery and a couple of others around the area- -but I have done my own before--you kinda have to separate yourself a little, so you're hanging a better looking show, and not just what you think your best ones are.
HOpe you all are getting for the Lunar eclipse on Tues--I know it is supposed to be mainly visible in N. Ireland, but you might get a look--supposed to light the shy red
Once you have all of that on, does someone stand you outside in the snow in front of the easel----or you could just build a fire pit around yourself. BTW--I tried the fingerless gloves--uh-uh--now I use fleece ones---thought my finger tips would fall off
I use whole fleece glove--they're sort of thick, but soft and warm--they do get paint on them, but that's ok. Sometimes paint caps present a problem.
I forgot about the possible defects in the fire-pit theory---maybe a ring of fire--but it still might smell like a bar-b-cue when one gets focusing too much.
Happy New Year--You might be sitting up right now waiting for it--if my addition is accurate-are you partying with folks or enjoying a quiet one relaxing--either way, lift a pint or glass, and I'll lift one in in 5hrs and 22 minutes. Start the year off well.

the pig is considered to be one of the smartest animals, of course--- rooting around for the best possible things.

Definitely a poet's corner - I would love it! I wrote this at Life Drawing the other night -
Beautiful woman
Posing
Can't do her justice
Just want her gesture
Her grace
In a line
In colour
Her essence
Elusive
See you in Ballyhack - Liz
