My new painting of a jellyfish- first draft.
I finally tried the gnocchi at Bucci's restaurant last night- delicious ! Thanks to Michael for the recommendation .

This Wednesday January 26th, Clark Miller gave a slide show and lecture at the California Academy of Science. He is an accomplished underwater photographer and conservationist. His images are beautiful and inspiring . He explained the threats to the survival of beautiful coral reefs and their inhabitants in an easily assimilable way. Please have a look at his work at AquaTerraImagery.com.

Thanks to my friends Judith and Paul for inventing hilarious uses for my postcards at Bucci's last night !

I painted again today- I love the patterns and colors on this one ! Top photo is the "finished" painting.

I started painting again in the studio yesterday. What a great feeling ! I was enchanted to see a jellyfish emerging in Philip Guston's cartoon style. I'm having fun instead of "working".

The food at Bucci's is delicious. I cant wait to eat there again while admiring my newly framed pieces.

That's me in the red shirt with a group of friends at my opening on Wednesday at Bucci's resturant in Emeryville, CA. The paintings look so elegant against the dark green walls. I love Bucci's old-world atmosphere.

Looking  forward to eating at Bucci's on Wed. Jan. 12th ! Opening is from 4 to 6 pm.

Right on the mark !

Euphoria reigns at the end of show hanging day !

Ready for tomorrow's adventure at Bucci's restaurant in Emeryville.
Opening January 12th from 4 to 6 pm.
