The News
10" x 8" Oil on mounted linen.
I painted from Karin Jurick's different strokes picture again this week. I cropped the photo down considerably. Instead of the movies section, I gave him the financial page in honor of this week's news.
Hi - I really enjoy your choice to put the current news into this painting, and the close crop. Isn't Karin the greatest for putting this all together for us? I'm getting to meet so many new artists and see wonderful works - like your Sept. 22 post of Mt. Index Winter. I can see why its a favorite, you've really caught the feeling of winter snow and sun.
Hi James, I saw your painting on Karin's blog and just had to come see the rest of your work. I like it very much. I like the way you made the newspaper reflect the current news. Joan
I am an artist living in the beautiful Northwest Cascades. It is exciting how the Internet is changing the world of art. You can visit my gallery anytime, even if you are not in the Seattle area!

Thanks Terry. Karin is great at painting too! I love her style and her signature motifs.
