"ACEQUIA DEL LLANO" - Archival Giclee (Click here for THE HIGH ROAD PRINT CATALOGUE"

22 October 2009 - Still cloudy today -- much to do -- some shopping for extras in anticipation of large snowstorm like the one that hit us last year. Shipping a painting off to a collector in Maine. Focus for the next four or five months....new paintings (the large "environment" canvases and small auction pieces), internet sales. Winter is always a long period of preparation. Am feeling quite free to follow my Muse wherever she leads me......DC, Taos, N.M.

WINTER DREAMS - Click to Visit the High Road Print Catalogue

21 October 2009 -- Cloudy, raining - just looked out of my kitchen window to the hills in the distance -- SNOW! My first thought was "I'm not ready for winter"! Going to visit with son, John, today -- fix him a nice lunch. Clean up the studio -- set up a new palette -- pull out some good music to inspire me - and settle in to do some serious painting. I actually love the quiet of winter -- it's time to stop striving, relax and just put a blank canvas on the easel and lose myself in some new work! DC

Earth, give me back your pristine gifts,
towers of silence which rose from
the solemnity of their roots.
I want to go back to being what I haven't been,
to learn to return from such depths
that among all natural things
I may live or not live. I don't mind
being one stone more, the dark stone,
the pure stone that the river bears away.

ABSENCE AND PRESENCE, Pablo Neruda
