Good Morning!
I've finally finished it! (Bet you thought I wasn't painting). The "Low Tide" painting had some problems as you saw in the last post. I think I now have it worked out, and here's the finished painting.
Over the long weekend, I spent a lot of time working on seascapes. As I have said before, landscapes (and seascapes) are difficult for me. This weekend, I'm taking a workshop on landscapes with Sara Linda Poly. I like her work and am told she is a good teacher. I'll do an intensive two days and perhaps my landscape issues will dissolve away! Personally I think painting about a thousand more landscapes would solve a lot of problems, but the workshop will help, anyway.
Good News! My painting "Red Daisies" was accepted into a juried show at the League of Reston Artists. This small painting is one of my own favorites. I'm glad to see that someone else liked it, too! The show runs June 2-30 at the Lake Anne Community Center, Reston, VA. If you're in the neighborhood, stop by and check it out!
Meanwhile, the measurements for "Low Tide" are 22 x 26 inches and the painting is on my website: http://www.glynisberger.com/ . Be sure to check out my website for other new paintings. I have quite a few new paintings posted.
Right now, I have company for the week, so I'm blogging whenever I get a few minutes. I may not get much painting done, but will show the results of the workshop anyway. Hopefully I'll have time to post something tomorrow.
Until next time,
Glynis

Oil painting, "Crooked Window"
Good Morning!
I spent the entire week and weekend catching up on things from our vacation. I was only able to complete one painting. It's on my website: http://www.glynisberger.com/ The name of the new painting is "Down to the Lake".
The auction is still on, so you still have time to bid on either my painting, or Winslow's. Looks like he's making some money for the hounds! I'm so proud of him.
This painting is one that I did while in Montauk. The image was based upon the fantastic old windows in the Burwell Morgan Mill where I volunteered at a recent art show. The building was fabulous and I was able to take some photos .
During the art show at the Mill in October, my friend Becky and I will be painting on site. I'm sure it will be a lot of fun.
This painting "Crooked Window" is also featured on my website. Here's a purchase link.
Until tomorrow,
Glynis

oil painting, "Pineapple"
Good Morning!
It's the beginning of another manic week at my house. I took some time to paint over the weekend, and managed to finish this painting. It is a larger painting than I like for the blog and it doesn't really qualify as a daily painting since I started it weeks ago. It's 16 x 20 and is available for purchase via my website. I plan to post it later today, so I will add a purchase link here. (I did add it, at the bottom of this post.)
The show at Millville will be opening April 26. I hope you will come out and see the work.
I will be volunteering on April 29 with my good friend and fellow painter, Becky. We'll be there from 12-5. If you have a chance, come out to Millville and visit us. It's a nice drive out in the country. Google "Burwell-Morgan Mill" or call 540-955-2600 for info. Lots of good art.
Until tomorrow,
Glynis

Daily oil painting, "Daffodils"
This painting has been donated to the Greyhound Angel Network auction. The link to bid will be posted shortly. Greyhound Angel Network pays medical bills for greyhounds in need. This is a favorite charity of mine and Winslow's. Please visit their auction and bid on something. It's a good cause and we are proud to donate.
