Painting the toys and boxers.

-


Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day and very mild.
We drove to the slopes of Vail and had a great time skiing in the sunny day.

Today I continued painting the "Sketchbook Series" in the studio.
I have been looking at the piece I've started for over a week, contemplating how to proceed with it.
Today seemed to be a good day with a lot of fluidity.
I added colors to the toys around the central figure, that I only outlined before.
I also painted the boxers that I entered in ink before.
I only painted their boxer shorts, their gloves and long laced shoes.
I left their bodies in black and white.

Tomorrow we plan to go skiing again since it is Martin Luther King's day.
But I plan to pack a painting for a collector that won my art auction that ended yesterday.

The hiking group was in good spirits this morning, cooking breakfast and packing up their gear. We were all a bit disappointed that we didn’t get to hike the scenic route along the southeastern coast, but it was clear now that this typhoon was a massive one. News reports described it as a once in 30 years storm to hit
