It has been a while since my last post.  I have been doing some painting, but I have been distracted by health issues.  .

About the paintings:  the "Tea Party" features some of my wife's dolls bought for various grandchildren, and live at our house.  The bears are from the explore.com website on the Kenai River in Alaska.  It is a continuous stream of video of the bears fishing for salmon.  Since I have seen many bear in Alaska, I was fascinated.
