In between painting, I am occasionally lured into a swim at my good neighbor's pool. The reward goes without saying, added to that, it rejuvenates me enough to continue painting longer into the evening. Gotta love that.
My neighbor poms - Taz and Ginger floating on a raft in the sunshine. A gift to my friends.
My swimming buddy, Ferris. I mistakenly thought it was Ginger, Ferris's little sister. They both love the pool. No animals were harmed during the making of this painting.

"When I'm old and gray, I want to have a house by the sea. And paint. With a lot of wonderful chums, good music, and booze around. And a damn good kitchen to cook in."
