"What Makes You Angry?" For me, it's mass shootings, violence, abuse, homelessness, liars, and politicians.

I am experimenting with new (to me) painting supplies. Centurion primed linen 11x14 sheets by Creative Mark. Smudger brushes, Liquin Olepasto. This piece was inspired by Pamela Blaeis (Let's Face It 2023).
I take a 4.5-mile walk in my neighborhood every morning. Lately, I've added to that and walked in one of several parks nearby in the afternoon. I used to push my husband in his wheelchair in these parks - boardwalks and/or paved paths - easy on me - he loved our little adventures!
Last week, I went to Freedom Park in Naples. It was a beautiful afternoon for a walk with inspiration everywhere I looked.
I've been working on this piece off and on - mostly off! I decided to go in the direction of abstraction.
A friend of mine has a summer home in NC. She took a photo of the forest outside her home and shared the picture with me. I loved it. Luckily for me, she is happy for me to try my hand at painting the scene.
Today, I stopped procrastinating and began blocking in the background on this 18x24 stretched canvas.
