IMPROVISATIONS AT WINDWARD

HIGH NOTES ON A GOOD TIME
Windward Vineyard has a special place in my heart because of more than Marc and Maggie and their wonderful wine.
This is now the third time a new year begins with an exhibition of my work in their beautiful gallery.  In the past two years I have presented my Plein Air work.  This year, Improvisations is a departure.  Actually it is a return to my roots.  When I was a student, our art department was very much a part of the modernist school.  I painted in an abstract style until our move to Cambria and my study with the great Plein Air colony there.  My time and study with the Wednesday Irregulars has been extraordinary.
However for this exhibition, I did a series of lyrical abstracts and bio morphic paintings.
The Windward Vineyard takes a winter rest, and provided a beautiful setting for the opening reception. 
Manager Anna, has again been as helpful and supportive as she is gracious and beautiful.
The reception was a great time and gave us a chance to visit with some wonderful people.
