Yes I'm headed to Vancouver today to volunteer for three weeks at the Olympics. Hopefully will be doing a few paintings of some of the scenes down there but likely won't see any athletes in action. We did have the Swedish Nordic team fly by us at our local mountain this week and that was a thrill!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14956411167410513232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7749491022587141602.post-25341748993054045232010-02-05T19:39:23.871-08:002010-02-05T19:39:23.871-08:00Love these wooden boats, and the 50's colors--...Love these wooden boats, and the 50's colors--perfection.

I think I'll root around for some more old photos though. I'm enjoying the memories they bring back.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14956411167410513232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7749491022587141602.post-22952992745789308432010-02-04T11:02:37.186-08:002010-02-04T11:02:37.186-08:00Wow, but you are active!

The painting is lovely, I painted a composition called Boats at Baska for my grandson some years ago with a similar composition, but made all the boats either blue or white. These colours are so pleasant.Marie Theronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873852756825147600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7749491022587141602.post-56081133955421379472010-01-31T21:52:21.606-08:002010-01-31T21:52:21.606-08:00What an animal you are!

My hat's off for your remarkable athleticism and this painting. I love the idea of bringing vintage photos to life.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05599714103955686190noreply@blogger.com
