Calendar Series: 68th Month / Flying Fish with Blue Tree (1990)






















"Flying Fish with Blue Tree" is the last painting from 1990. We are coming to the end of the Calendar Series. In 1991, I did only one painting. In that year, an artist friend, Kevin Schnoebelen, died of ALS and left me his art supplies. In 1992, I completed the last four paintings of the Calendar Series.

Five paintings were completed 1993, and one in 1994, a few months before my mother died unexpectedly of a massive heart attack, after which my father made a decision to move from California to live in a retirement community in my town.

Calendar Series: 67th Month / Flying Fish with Red Tree (1990)






















My sister emailed me to let me know that I had made a mistake in my numbering, having referred to yesterday's painting as the "67th Month." She attached a snapshot of the framed piece, which had faded from being in the sunlight.






















Thank you, sister! My painting records had been difficult to decipher. Good to be back on track with the numbering.
