One of my fondest memories from this time of year was when my parents took my brothers and me to purchase school supplies. I love the smell of a newly sharpened pencil and I love the sight of a new box of Crayons.

The beautiful Athenaeum Rectory has received a much needed and most wonderful face lift with the generous donation of an anonymous donor. It's taken a year and $150,000 to make her better than new, and I couldn't be happier. She is once again open to the public for tours.

I've missed painting in oils, so pulled them out to get the feel again. Love painting cows. They are so beautiful, especially young Highland.

Painted this lovely watercolor while spending time with dear artist friends at a charming home situated next to the beautiful, green Caney Fork River in Rock Island, Tennessee.
