available for purchase here

I started this painting in Shari Beaubien's class over the weekend and just finished it. Shari introduced me to some new techniques so I started with those...and then incorporated some of my own when I got home. It's sort of Beaubien/O'Neill original! Thanks, Shari...for showing me some very cool new texture techniques and for the idea to incorporate heart shapes into my abstracts. I had a lot of fun with this one!

My sweet James just left today for a four day abalone diving trip to California. I miss him already. He has a group of friends that he meets at Salt Point once a year and they have a blast. I've joined him before on this trip...but I guess you could say I'm not really a "camper". That's putting it mildly. Let's just say a nice hotel with a beautiful view and a glass of chilled chardonnay are more my speed!
