Oh, I know, everyone expects pictures of the new baby Nora. But this is Betsy, intrigued with the "High School Musical" performance in the park Saturday night. She was a very fun date, although she told me that grandmas and kids can't really have dates. Pictures of Nora will be coming when everything calms down a bit at home. Joey continues to be determined to dismantle Nora's swing, or in the alternative, claim it for his own. Betsy is not impressed with Nora's feedings.
This is another small 16 x 16" piece I finished last week. It was hard to capture the true colors of this painting. The red really glows. I painted it with this orientation, but I actually like it better turned 90 degrees to the left, so that the black and white stripe is at the bottom.
Back to other creative endeavors this week. Keep cool, everyone.

She's so beautiful!
As for the paiting - luscious, luscious red....
Red is so you Mary, and you you use it so beautifully! Betsy is a straight talker isn't she?
Wow! I love the intensity of this painting. I have played with red this week, but have not achieved anything close to this exciting. Again, you have inspired me to keep trying.
I love this picture of Betsy! Such a little cutie!
Betsy is beautiful - lovely picture of her.
Thank you, Jazz. The painting is pretty eye-catching hanging on the wall.
Hi, Leslie. Yeah, I know, the red thing again. And don't you just love little kids, they'll say anything they can get away with. I especially love it when Betsy squeals on Joey for saying a swear word. She will repeat it over and over, with the preface of "Did you hear Joey say...?"
Miki, thanks. The red I have used a lot lately is cadmium, the medium and light, mixed with various other reds. It is pretty intense.
Lauren, I think she really liked the High School Musical show. She's a pistol.
Catherine, thank you, I am amazed that Betsy is my granddaughter.
