Sea and the Shore by Carol Smith Myer

This is technically the bay and Tiburon, but I was singing Robby Hecht's "Sea and the Shore" while I was painting, so that is how I will remember it. Great love song between the elements. 9x12, oil on linen panel. email

Daniel Gerhartz Workshop

Fantastic week in Wisconsin with Daniel Gerhartz. Food for the soul! Everything this trip was lovely and inspiring. Wisconsin is gorgeous, Dan’s home and studio are stunning, his work is incredible, and he genuinely cares and does his utmost to help his students. So glad I went. I know I improved because when I got home, I looked at my old paintings, and saw what was missing.
