­ - tagged meme

Monday, May 14th, 2007

Dear Friends,
I’m sorry that I don’t have time right now to do a new tagging, so I am using the one that I did before. I got to 8 and then got too busy to do the rest. I appreciate being included, however.
I was tagged by Evy in the 20 things meme. Like Evy, I […]

“Fulmer Lake” - 15″ x 11″ - watercolor on paper

“Arroyo Rose” - 9 x 12 Raffine paper - plein aire

Cobb Estate Cypresses

Tuesday, May 8th, 2007

Cobb Estate Cypresses 5″ x 8″ - watercolor
The Cobb Estate in Pasadena is a wonderful resource for artist, hiker and nature lover (also dog walkers.)
