I've thought about this piece for a while and decided to get it going this year. It's a short season, about 3 weeks, so I'll be at this one for a few years probably: "Path into the New" 24 x 30 oil painting - in progress. |

Here's a new sketch just started. I'm painting as briskly as I can because the season for it will be short. The leaves are growing and showing hints of shading the water, but I love this bright drama: "Springtime Rushhhhh" 8 x 15 oil painting - in progress. |

This year's water flow was much higher, so I could only push this version forward by about an inch: "Marchshhhhh" 12.5 x 21 oil painting - in progress. |
|
| |
The stream's flow was consistently high for this season, so I decided to do a sketch of this spot in that mood: "Aprilshhhhh" 6 x 11 oil painting. |
 |
 |
"Spring Chatter" 18 x 30 oil painting - in progress: I took this painting backwards 2 steps, and my forward steps for the lower water flow feel much better now. I'll hope to get to the middle section next year. |

This spot is the same tree pair as my summertime "Restful Waters" piece, and I was drawn to the peace that lives at this spot in the spring also: "Restful Spring"12 x 16 oil painting - in progress. |

This painting was inspired by a golden moment of our daughter watching my mother-in-law repair a homemade stuffy, or "peluche," that was a gift. We were visiting the family village in the north of Spain, where the kitchen was not built on a rectangle: "Surgery" 16 x 20 oil painting. |
