Some of you may know the Jim Cullum Jazz Band from National Public Radio. It broadcasts from the Riverwalk here in San Antonio. I was walking with Karen after work the other night and took some photos of these fellows as we passed by and painted them today. The sax player is the one I painted with the blue hat a couple of weeks ago from a different photo.
This is an oil on gessobord, 6" x 6". While I was painting it, I got to have several magical conversations with people who walked in the gallery. The woman of one couple may be a distant cousin of mine- her mother's maiden name was Carlin and hailed from the same part of the country my Carlins are from. I had several other coincidental connections with them, too.
I love my work! (You've probably figured that out already, right?)

You are such a talented woman! I love to look at your work - uummm - I mean your passion! It shows!
Do you still do the bookclub?
Nicely done Susan.
I like the two cowboy portraits too.
Do you paint every day that you are at your gallery?
I have a gallery here that I am at part time. I don't get a chance to paint every time I am there though.
Thanks, Barb. Ok, I'm blank. Do we know each other from a book club? Are you one of the folks who was interested, but couldn't attend? Solve the mystery for me, ok?
Thanks, Frank- The short answer is, "yes, most days." The long answer I'll send by email. I much prefer the days I paint to the ones I don't. I do try to paint at least half the work day and a good day is ALL day!
