Time for an update from the studio, goodness it's been a while!
 
Since the blog post, which was a 'plein-air efforts' post, I haven't done
any plein-air painting and that's mainly due to the weather.
 
And that should rarely ever be an excuse for any plein-air painter,
but there are times when it can be rather difficult to muster the motivation
let alone find the inspiration where everything is a drab gray-ish brown,
and the sky is nothing, but a gray-ish white blanket, and it's cold outside.
 
So with the weather being as it has been for the last month
I've put myself back in the studio by working on a new batch of Binoculars
paintings for the nice set of gallery representation that I now have (and
also for inventory ... which is always a great challenge for me).
 
It is quite the contrast from last October where for a very short while,
I had no physical gallery representation what-so-ever. 
 
Among having the Sylvan Gallery (again) and Trade Winds Gallery (new),
 Susan Powell Fine Art of Madison CT, now represents my work as well.
 
It's also that time of year for Marine artists to give it their best shot
at trying for the prestigious honour of the 'Signature Membership' of the 
which I will be attempting to do again this year.
 
So, even though it may be quiet from time to time here on the blog
rest assured there is always something brewing in the studio!
 
And speaking of which, I'm super excited about the next
'Artist on Artist' interview for next month!
 
Please stay tuned for more what's new from the studio!
 
Cheers, ~ Polly ~
