I know it's been awhile since I've posted, but 2nd Saturdays and vacation got me sidetracked. My husband and I finally took a much-needed vacation to the culturally filled, unpopulated Berkshires in Massachusetts. We spend most of the week relaxing, trying to hike which given my growing belly proved difficult, taking in some of the cultural events like the Boston Pops at Tanglewood and the Aspen Santa Fe Ballet at Jacob's Pillow, and I made some time to paint.

I have not done a lot of plein air painting in my artistic career, but did some this week. I had a spectacular Berkshire view out of the house in Lee where we were staying. I guess you could say I quasi plein air painted because I sat in a screened in porch due to the iffy weather we had.

The paintings are now at TraillWorks, still drying due to the heavy paint, and are ready for viewing and sale.

Enjoy!
