"Last in Line", 24" x 30" oil on canvas, 2008
Private Collection
This is the larger version of "Last in Line" 14 x 18, that I posted in November. I have had this finished for a while but I had not posted it.
I will not be able to post many new paintings this week. Most of my energy will be going into teaching my plein air workshop here in San Miguel. I went out painting yesterday and the weather was great. I'll post what I came up with at a later date. We should have sunny skies in the high 80's all week. Great painting weather.

You are a wonderful colorist.
Hope the plein air workshop is fun and productive.
I keep being struck by similarities between the countryside in Mexico and Maroc.
The goat kids are delightful.
Seems like you, me,Constance and Jennifer are the 'go to' people for the doors thing. I am compiling a list and will post on Tuesday.
Hey Frank,
The colors in this one really sing. Beautiful painting.
Good luck with the workshop. I'ld love to hear about how it goes. I hope you'll post some stuff on the blog about your experience.
Happy teaching,
Colin
Thanks Elizabeth.
Thank you Colin. I'll let you know how the workshop goes for sure. Maybe I can post a few things.
Hey Frank,
This one seriously rocks. I love the composition and feeling I get from it.
Frank--I loved it in November and love it more now. Beautifully composed and lovely rich color. Good luck with the workshop wish I could be there.
This is really wonderful Frank. The baby is the back is so sweet. Have a great workshop. Barb
Thanks Simon. I appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks Jack. We went to Patsy's today to paint and she lavished us with awesome food.
Thanks Barb. The little lamb is who is "Last in Line".
Hi Frank, this is such a beautiful painting. i am always amazed at how much you make happen with each individual brushstroke. this painting makes me think of spring, which i wish would just hurry up and get here already. great size too!
Thanks Christine. I try to make each stroke count.
Actually, those are fall colors here. Spring is pretty dry.
Hi Frank,
I love everything about this painting, it tells a story.
Your door project is very interesting. I, too, love doors. They can be inviting or not, and always we wonder what is on the other side?
Most important, I'm very sorry for your loss of your good friend, Bill. He sounded like an amazing person. Friendships need nurturing to endure...this one obviously was well tended.
Hi Jennifer, thanks for all of the kind words. I will have to do some catching up on painting blogs this weekend. I have been busy with my workshop and the doors thing and I miss seeing everyone's paintings.
Frank,
You really do 'make every stroke count'
Well done.
Thanks Jason. I try and make every one count.
I can't say that it always works out that way.
Great work.
Thanks Tama!
