It runs in the family

My sister Amy, paints! I can't believe it! When she told me that she had started painting, I almost fell over. She was/is the last person in the world that I would even think would start doing something creative. The studious type, the single working girl, the academic type, but not in anyway, an artist. Since we have been adults, she has always lived in other places such as Denver, North Hampton,MA, and now Davis, CA, so knowing what she was doing on a day to day basis was not part of the program. Needless to say I was quite surprised but hearing the joy in her voice as she talked about her new passion thrilled me. The best part about all of this is that after all these years we finally have something in common, our art.
Here's her latest work after taking a weekend of lessons in Huntington Beach, CA. from Robert Burridge.
