Having a bowl of bulbs in the winter is good for the spirit. These paperwhites were done with pencil, pen, watercolor, and (on the bulbs) a little water-soluble crayons.

Women’s March, Redux
Yesterday I went to the fourth Women’s March with my daughter Kate and granddaughter Lila. I attended the first two in Washington, the third in New York, and the fourth in Raleigh, N.C. Here’s my painting of the first Women’s March in January, 2017. Prints, to benefit 2020 voter registration in swing states, are available here.
Stormy Sea
This painting skirts the line between realism and abstraction.
Boston Panorama
One of the best views in Boston is from the Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA). The entire side of the building facing the water is glass. You can see part downtown Boston (left) to the Tobin Bridge and Logan Airport (right). Last week it was fun to sit and sketch, and paint later at home.
Slurping Ramen
At lunch at a ramen noodle restaurant yesterday, this young man didn’t want to miss a drop.
New Year’s Resolutions
Like millions of others, I am resolved to eat more healthily this year. Which means, of course, more fruits and vegetables. Here is one of my favorites.
Thanks to our Doctors!
Four years ago today, Dr. James Phillips replaced both my knees. He literally put the spring back in my step. I owe so much to him, and to Dr. Asmal and Dr. Bala (my PCPs for more than three decades) for keeping me healthy.
To what medical professionals do you owe thanks for your quality of life, or even your life itself? We are so incredibly blessed to have modern medical care available to us.
Happy New Year!
May you and yours have a healthy, happy 2020! And thanks to all of you who have written to me over the last year. I love painting and sharing with you, and you are a major motivator in my artistic journey.
In honor of the 2020 election year, 50% of the proceeds from the art I sell this year will be donated to register voters in swing states. So if, during 2020, you are interested in an original, a print, or a commissioned painting (like a house or pet portrait), and you’d also like to help make sure everyone votes in November, just let me know. Best, Lynn
