THE PAINTER'S PHILOSOPHY

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, paint brush in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming  'WOO HOO!  What a ride!

PUBLICATIONS

Look for articles in Paintworks magazine through out 2010 featuring the affordability of decorative painting.

Painting magazine in December, 2009 will feature a crescent moon wreath design with Santa sitting amongst the presents.

Painting magazine in 2010 will feature three projects - one on turning trash into treasure; another is a summer banner and another is a 6" x 9" gallery canvas of Brandt Point Light.

A new Finishing Touches book is in the works - due to be released in time for the SDP national conference.
