April Showers? Bring May Showers, I Mean Flowers?

I can't believe it's the middle of May. Madeline got her license and is having a blast with my car and the freedom. David heads to Minnesota this weekend for a friend's prom, followed by LTHS prom/activities/graduation the first week of June.

I just finished the last set of commissioned pieces for Dixon Law Offices, La Grange, Illinois. Thanks again to Susan and Grant Dixon for their support. Tomorrow I plan to break out some new canvases and go crazy. Doing what? I don't know...just a day of random painting. I have three more clients in the line up...then I'll get serious again.

We just returned from St. John in the US Virgin Islands, and I have to say I prefer that fantasyland versus La Grange, Illinois. I need a home on the beach, ocean, sunset, pool boy, wait staff, chef...LOL anyways...the kids and I had a terrific time and are planning our next excursion before David takes off to NYU. I truly enjoyed laughing and talking with my kids on the sunset cruise. Floating over the ocean in a parasail was amazing. It was if I was over a giant vat of bluish green oil paint. I could have stayed up there for hours. Next time I will have to pay double.

On the artistic front, I finished two of the four paintings for Dixon Law Offices in La Grange, 15+ pieces of jewelry for Amy, and continue to enjoy painting random small pieces while the others are drying! Some of my art will be on display this May in Flossmoor for the Cancer Support Center.

Enjoy the spring green and sun. I am!
