It has been a long time since I have posted anything on my blog. It has, once again, been a crazy busy summer.
We finally sold our house in WA and have moved down to Prescott, AZ!
It's a lovely town and with lakes and lots of hiking. We have national forest out of our back yard and we love the house.
I am just starting to dabble back into painting after a long pause of quite a few months.
"What could be a better place to start than to do a ... a self portrait"
The drawing was really much better... but when I transferred it to the watercolor paper and painted it... it somehow changed, and looks like some different version of me ( Does that make sense ?) And hence the title.
I would highly appreciate all the crits..

Congratulations for your new home! The painting is fabulous, colors are vibrant.It looks just like your profile pic.Great portrait.
Congratulations on the move. I think your portrait is nice. You did a great job on the eyes and I like the interesting way you handled the hair.
Hi Arti & Michelle!
Thanks a lot! I appreciate you kind feedback! And nice to "see" you after a long time.... :)
Yakima's loss, Prescott's gain.
Your work is very good as usual. Hope to see more now that things are settled.
Stan! I highly appreciate your generous praise! I do hope to do more art from here on... It's been a long time!
Best Wishes to you & Jan!
Welcome back. Its a nice work. Just the pangs of settling down.
AK! YES! The sweet pangs of settling down. getting back into the routine...etc.
Thanks for the kind comments as always :)
Thank you for sharing
This fabulous work with us

Thanks Skizo, Welcome to my blog!
Your own illustrations are very unique and one of a kind! Amazing!
Aha!! Well, I guess that means we won't be luring you "over the mountain" to the Seattle area for any big paint ins! Our loss is Arizona's gain! Now you have a whole new scenery to paint!! Have fun and paint freely!!
hap!!! I wish I had gotten a chance to see you all in Seattle... What a wonderful watercolorists' group you have in the area! Thanks so much for visiting my Blog! I wasn't able to leave a comment on your blog, but I love your photoshopped steam engine! :D
