A few months ago I was reading Snow Falling on Cedars by David Guterson. This novel is set in the Pacific Northwest and while I was reading it, I felt nostalgic for the moody landscape. And so I was nudged to begin this painting. I have another one that goes along with it that I finished last week, but I have yet to get an image of it.

******************

I had a whirlwind weekend as I flew to Maryland to get a quick visit with my family and to attend my 15 year high school reunion. For so long with all my moving and seeking these past 15 years, I have often felt like a stranger even places that I made into my home. Being around familiar faces and voices was such a nice feeling. And an odd feeling too.

Trying to catch up with everything still. But chasing after a two year old takes up most of my time these days!

I am happy though that I finally updated my etsy shop and my amanobooks art section with prints that are now available for sale.

  1. I didn’t even sign in to my blog – figuring to just read here & there, do some blog-hopping. But! This is so, so lovely that I have to say something. I sometimes get the feeling that you are slowly evolving into painting for painting’s sake; this piece would be gorgeous with just that sky – that emotion of paint only. Absolutely stunning.

  2. Amazing1 this is like Deja-vu! A few years ago, I went to Lapland and took a series of photographs which I have recently turned into more painterly, digital images that reflected the beautiful stillness and silence of Lapland and my personal melancholy at the time.They have been up my blog and Flickr gallery since January. Do take a look at this one, which is not on my blog) because it will astound you!
