Yes, You Can

Think of all the times you've said you couldn't do something and found you could, when mentored or coached.  

In early 2008 I started art classes with Lissa Friedman, who has helped me discover a completely new aspect of myself.

The cloisonne vases in this still life have been in my family since my Dad was stationed in Japan in the mid-forties; the Italian silk scarf was a gift from my friend Lesley. During the process of painting this still life, I was inspired by Stede Barber's article, "'Can I Be An Artist?' Yes, You Can."
