A different kind of painting
I hope this finds you well.
How are you filling your 'extra time' at home?
Since Jerome was closed two months ago, I've been working on a couple
of manual labor jobs to make some money. I scraped and painted the
underside of a friends deck over the past couple of weeks. It was a bit
of work, but it was very nice of him to help me out during this
challenging time.
I'm also doing a little drywall repair for another friend. It's times
like these when you find out who is really there for you.

I've also been very touched by the well wishes online, and by several
of my collectors who have come forward and made purchases in the last
two months. I want to give a hearty thank you. You know who you are. My
sister made a big purchase for her office as well. I am blessed by all
the support. For about a month I thought I might have to close my
studio in Jerome, but now I am much more hopeful that things will be
ok. I am healthy and I know there are many who are struggling with much
bigger issues right now. I am blessed.

This handsome fellow above is a Great Blue Heron that visits me almost
once a week this time of year. He sits atop a fence post on the other
side of the creek from my yard some evenings hunting. I painted this
from a photo I took as he was leaving one night.

In other non-art news, my girlfriend Linnea just bought the trailer
next to mine, her's is on the right, mine is on the left. It's a fixer
upper so we have been spending every weekend doing repairs and yes
(ugh) painting it inside and out. She calls it her 'doll house' and it
will be a cute little place for her when we get it all done.

So, now that my arms are about to fall off, I'm happy to report that
Jerome is once again open, and I am back in the studio with limited
hours.
We are using safe practices, so if you're in the area I invite you to
stop by. Mask wearing is welcome but not required, and we are
sanitizing daily.
