Ohhh, the suspense...

Appointment this afternoon with very cool dude neurosurgeon. Will he allow me to drive today - or won't he? Will I be cleared for take off (of neck brace)? Will he notice my weight loss? (14 lbs so far!) Will hubby take me out for a really good salad after seeing doc?

I have enough suspense/conflict/story arcs in my life today to dispense with reading the badly edited book I'm reviewing. Sounds like a good excuse to paint!

Completed this one yesterday:


The photo. The painting.

More paintings are available on my website: www.lindajhutchinson.com Select either button at the front door and then select the "Linda's Paintings" button.

New Photo

Thought I'd give my blog a little more polished look with a new photo of me in a suit rather than a T-shirt. The photo is the best we could do considering I had to take my neck brace off to have it taken. Think it's an improvement - or does it just make me look two years (?) older than the last photo did?

(Please be kind - putting on makeup and brushing my hair are a big whoppin' deal following spine surgery.)

Actually, I needed to send a new photo to a features writer in Dubai who interviewed me for a story she's writing for a flight magazine. Any excuse is a good excuse I suppose. HARO rocks!

Okay, off to my little oil painting corner. Should have some photos of my paintings up this weekend at the website. I'll be announcing it loudly when that happens. Need to complete 2.5 paintings per week to stay on goal for the local festival. And I MUST also stay on top of my writing goals. And take naps as needed, per doctor's orders.
