Tony was a very qualified teacher and I'd be interested in a classroom instruction. Since we were in different rooms of the museum, Tony would travel around checking on us and helping us. I wished more time would have been spent instructing.

The sunsets at Pismo Beach in February were beautiful. I have painted 5 sunset pictures since then because they are so much fun to paint. I decided I needed to paint on bigger canvases so this is the largest at 18x24?.

Title or Location: Gromit in heaven
Gromit was a ?foster fail? who helped many other foster dogs on their way to a new life. He demonstrated life could be kind and to try and trust again. His favorite play dates were at Union Reservoir, retrieving tennis balls in the water. The day before Memorial Day in 2018, he started fading fast, a rush to the emergency vet showed the cause, cancer on his heart. He died just after midnight, so it would be impossible for me to forget him. He was 4years old.
