Yeeeehaw! I finally started a painting this week – though it is not one that I had planned. It’s grayscale (not typical for me), but in the moment I knew it was exactly what I wanted to paint. Change is positive, and this most definitely needs to be a year of change! It may be awhile before it’s done, as I’m using oils – and both the paint and I are a bit pokey when it comes to doing our job. In the meantime (since black and white seems to be my trend this week), I’m posting a photo I took in Utah a few years ago. If you’ve never visited Red Cliffs Rec Area, I highly recommend it… striking views and wonderful hiking!

A big resolution I have for 2013: to get back in touch with my artistic side – so you will likely be seeing more photos and artwork here on the happy & simple blog!
Ok, I can’t resist – I am posting the color shot as well!
Enjoy :)

How Color and B&W are different, my gosh! Your color version inspires me to design a bathroom around that shot and the colors. Love it!!
I am imagining your fun and colorful style – bet it would be great! :)
Glad you posted the colour image!…looking forward to seeing the painting, here’s to getting busy…
…I think the paint is taunting me, I’ve been waiting three days for it to dry enough to continue – next time, acrylics perhaps. Happy to hear you enjoyed the color photo!
