As I mentioned in prior posts, I had shoulder surgery for the 2nd time this year in December and have been unable to paint since then. The Doc gave me the go ahead a few weeks ago and I hit the easel hard. Unfortunately the "mojo" hasn't been flowing! When I take that much time off, things don't come easy. It seems harder to get into the zone. So I decided to post some of the paintings of other artists I greatly admire, that I have been fortunate to acquire while not painting. I love buying these little gems since I learn so much from studying them. They are like workshop demos to me and often remain at my studio unframed!
