reducing my dependence on foreign oils ...

yesterday was 'gamblin day'... nope not on the 'rez' ; ) -- gamblin is a local portland company that makes beautiful hi quality oil paints a world that I still have a lot to learn about.. but I'm expanding my knowledge and going local thanks to my new friendship with robert gamblin and his crew - many of whom are painters as well as paint and color masters!! ... we had a paint out yesterday at the farm .. and it was dreamy!! Here's the photo version of the day! (thanks to Pete for many of the photos)

    First off: Great title!

    And what a genteel gathering…the impressionists couldn't have looked more picturesque than this. And the results are truly gorgeous. Great work.

    How do you do it? How can I find myself moved to tears yet again for yet another manifestation of YOU? I think the dinner on your farm was the last moment when I felt so happy for you two I thought I couldn't feel happier. This time a wave of "ahhhhhhh, THAT'S Clare". I hadn't even pictured this possibility. It's perfect.
