Good Afternoon!
Yes, I got a good night's sleep, got up early and got to work. It felt good to paint after being away from it for awhile.
Today's painting is the 2nd in a (hopefully large) series that I am working on. I've been preparing this series for about a year. The first painting can be seen on my website, http://www.glynisberger.com/.
Often, while driving, I've seen things that I say I would like to photograph or paint or both. Promising myself that I'll stop "next time" because I'm too busy, I go right by. I began taking a camera with me and photographing as I drive by interesting things without stopping. Landscapes, buildings, whatever. Now, I'm painting from these photos, blurs and all.

I hope this will be a continuing series of growth and discovery, much like Diebenkorn's Ocean Park series. I'm crazy about that series. I've been fortunate to see 4 of them "in person". He was an amazing painter.
BTW: There is a Diebenkorn show in NYC right now. I copied this from an article in the NY Times:
“Diebenkorn in New Mexico” is on view through April 5 at the Grey Art Gallery, New York University, 100 Washington Square East, at Waverly Place, Greenwich Village; (212) 998-6780, nyu.edu/greyart.
I hope you will go if you get a chance. He was a fabulous painter. One of my favorites.
Until tomorrow,
Glynis
