Hello from Tesuque!  Wow!  What an adventure so far!  A real monsoon season this year with hellacious thunderstorms - wind, hail - just everything!  Exciting - especially when the rain came through the roof in five different places - towels, buckets -- just short of having to get out the life preserver.  Phone and internet out for two days.  Roof repair this week sometime.  Went back to the  easel the next day as though nothing happened -- nothing monotonous around here; that's for sure!  Starting to  photograph the views from my Tesuque windows and will head down the road apiece this weekend - I love the little street sign that says "Margaritaville" along the dirt road.  Had a good time making this painting - it is for sale through my Online Gallery/Store and will be displayed on website Collector's Gallery - ENJOY!

Hello!  Still having a little trouble with new Photoshop - can't "gray" the sky as much as necessary --- The original is more of a midnight blue!   I need to cry "Uncle" and ask for help!   Also have to arrange a better lighting system to photograph the work.  Am working on it - all the details - one of these days......    This is a lovely painting - just completed it this afternoon.  ENJOY!

Best regards, Donna
