The gorgeous centerpiece on the dining table of our #neworleans hosts for a cocktail party last night honoring #artinbloom donors and #neworleansmuseumofart

A great day at #neworleansmuseumofart and #artinbloom speaking about #thebeecottagestory ! There is also a brilliant exhibit of #chineselanterns, as pictured. Thank you #neworleans !

Good morning. Love my breakfast tray and weekly (sort of) bouquet from a dear friend. #camellias #breakfasttray @billyhurbaugh

The ride home on Foxen Canyon, green for the first time in years. So grateful for some time in the studio this weekend to capture it! #theridehome #foxencanyon #losolivos #santaynezvalley #landscape #pleinairpainting (though not really bc done in studio 😉 Happy Monday! 11×14 oil on canvas board, by moi.

As I drove into town this morning, A hot air balloon rose across the vineyard in the distance as if on cue. Almost corny but beautiful. #rancholazaca #losolivos #santaynezvalley #santabarbarawinecountry #oaksavannavineyard #hotairballoon

Just another day in Los Olivos… #losolivos #santaynezvalley #smalltownliving #smalltownusa #horseandcarriage

You know how sometimes you see something in a window and you just want to take the whole thing home? Umhmm. Loved these bird motif ceramic plates from @scoutsouthernmarket in Beaufort SC when I was there a few weeks ago. What can I say, I am a total #chinaslut #placesettings #tablesettings #entertaining #tabletop
