            This is actually my last painting of 2018, just posted a little late. My Christmas tree is still up, though coming down tomorrow and I have to admit I will miss the colored lights, the beautiful ornaments, and the wonderful smell of a blue spruce tree. I’m always slow to get the tree up and decorated but I’d happily keep it up until February. So, this is probably the last of my winter or holiday scenes until next year.

            Happy Weekend!

            When I cannot think of a title for one of my paintings, I often read poetry for inspiration.  Each time I do this, I not only find an interesting painting title but I am also reminded of the tremendous skill exhibited by poets. I paint images with pigment but they also paint images, I think more skillfully than I at times, with their choice of just the right words. The title for this painting comes from the poem, “A Spell BeforeWinter” by Howard Nemerov.       

          Happy Winter and Happy New Year!
