I did get out to one of the portrait groups last week. Jeannette, who is one of the members of the group, posed for us. She jokingly requested that if we were painting her in color to please include her streaks of turquoise and gold hair. You can see them on the left side near her neck. She was a great model.
Yesterday I went to the Phoenix Gallery in Bellport for the reception of the BAHC show "Destinations and Journeys." My stained paper collage "Abbey With Lavender" won 2nd place.
