At the beginning of the year I wanted to take more time to work on my painting. My goal was to complete one new painting each month. By the end of February I had finished two. That feels like a good start.

In March, one painting is being juried for an online exhibit, and another is in a local Members Show. I also entered a colorful painting from last year that will be on display through April in Daytona Beach.

“Sunlight late Winter Afternoon”, is a watercolor inspired by the view behind my home. I was drawn to the warm orange light reflecting on the water. It was submitted to the Florida Watercolor Artists 2026 Associate Member Online Exhibition.

“The Palm Grove” is a mixed media collage using paper and acrylics. The palms outside my studio window inspired it. I outlined the palms in white, which was new for me but very effective. The painting will be at the Artists’ Workshop of New Smyrna Beach in March.

“The Colombian Girl in the Marketplace”, is a bright acrylic painting that explores women’s stories and experiences. It will be shown at Gallery500 in Daytona Beach through April and during the ONE DAYTONA Art Festival.

My Monday art class at Trinity continues with steady attendance. This month we are going to study composition and experiment with dying paper for collage.

Our new Urban Sketching group met in DeLand in February. About 20 artists attended, and we were warmly supported by the Orlando group. Our next outing is March 3rd.

Thank you for your continued encouragement.
Happy spring!
