Introducing the series Road Trip 2007
My cousin and I have traveled life together since we were children. We spent summers on her parents ranch where we ran barefoot in the sun, shared all our secrets and giggled under the covers at night until our mothers told us to hush up and go to sleep. They were still telling us the same thing to our teenage years. And so it continues. She has just returned from a trip to the East Coast, cross country from ocean to ocean and I have "traveled" with her via e-mail and photos. I would like to share her trip with you as she shared it with me. I hope you will enjoy my paintings of the Road Trip With GG as much as I have. Yes, we still share our secrets and giggle into the night. Some things will never change.
Welcome to the new Zion National Park series,
This image will be submitted to the Zion National Park Exhibit. This Zion Natural History Association, in partnership with Zion National Park, the St. George Art Museum, and the St. George Araea Convention and Visitors Bureau announced the call for entires for the art competition and traveling exhibit. On our Paint Out trip to Zion National Park GG took many many pictures of this beautiful part of America. I will be doing a series from this wealth of references, entering this competition with my interpretation of this marvelous location.
I loved painting this picture because the colors are so vivid.
11"x14" oil on gesso board.
This quilt is one of many quilts that Karen has created. Very unusual and one of GG's favorites.
I want to introduce you to the different designs that these beautiful quilts encompass. I know you will enjoy this journey.
GG's 2007 Road Trip
What a great day on the Old Village Pike!! The sun is shining and warm; the farmlands are rich with the beginnings of summer crops and the feeling is euphoric! This horse just fit right in with my mood today. He is so good looking with his light chestnut coat and thick cream colored mane. He probably is euphoric, too, chowing down in that lush green pasture. He certainly looks very right with his world. Actually, that’s the way I feel, too.
The last image on this series. The next series will be on images from Zion National Park. I hope that you enjoy.
I will be highlighting quilts done by Karen Kimmel and GG, interspersed with the new series. Quilting has always intrigued me because of the work that goes into a project and most of us know little, of how difficult it is.
6"x6" Oil on gesso board, unframed. $99.00 postage prepaid.
