There have been a few signs of spring this week in NY, but I'm hesitant to believe it's here so soon. . .

I Ate Your Cookies















I Ate Your Cookies
8" x 10"
Watercolor on paper

I went to the Bonnard show at the Met today. It was fantastic and inspiring. The work made me just want to go home and paint, which I did. His paintings strike me because they really are like moments slowed in time. I was going to say "captured" in time, but they don't have the feeling of snapshots. In many, there is a sense of time and light that has elapsed, like the moments of early morning or late afternoon.
