A whole lot of shaking going on

 
My postcards and invitations for the Starlight Symphonies show
at the Amsterdam Whitney Gallery, in New York City,
arrived today. 

The postcards and invitations to arrived today for
the group show I'm in at the Amsterdam Whitney
gallery in New York City which opens with a red carpet
gala on May 5th.  Wahoo!  The postcards and invites are
beautiful. How wonderful.  In the meantime I am painting
like crazy.  I have two easels set up and bounce
back and forth between the two with cups of
tea in hand.

 Here's a small painting of tulips I did the other
day.  I have a special place in my heart for tulips
because my husband is Dutch-Canadian, plus
as a child I lived in Ottawa, Ontario, which
has a spectacular tulip festival the moment the
spring weather warms up.  It's cold today, and I'm
working plein air on one work.  (I'll show you
tomorrow I hope).  The wind is whipping the trees around,
and I'm mighty glad of a stable easel.

Have a superb day.
