Every August, Camp restores and reinspires me, and afterward I return to my studio with lots of paintings in my head (and tons of images on my camera). Through the year they emerge one by one...<br /><br /><div align="left"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S8RqvV6c2eI/AAAAAAAAAXk/ES6zLqu2pqU/s1600/IMG_3857.JPG"></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8967981970100713075-4879836045394721522?l=alice-kirkpatrick.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14069491606038710191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8967981970100713075.post-56572476901555854422010-02-28T08:08:00.000-08:002010-04-13T06:13:34.582-07:00<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S4qVFv313AI/AAAAAAAAAEc/pqVoMp-AraM/s1600-h/103_0393.JPG"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S4qVFv313AI/AAAAAAAAAEc/pqVoMp-AraM/s320/103_0393.JPG" /></a> </div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px" align="left">This is one of hundreds of water reflections I've photographed over the years.

Close to the heart, so I'm keeping it!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8967981970100713075-7247267515718417909?l=alice-kirkpatrick.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14069491606038710191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8967981970100713075.post-50390889944066425612010-01-30T12:36:00.000-08:002010-02-01T14:41:45.747-08:00<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYjSrPD1I/AAAAAAAAAAM/k4SGa1qe7ow/s1600-h/IMG_3543-1.JPG"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYjSrPD1I/AAAAAAAAAAM/k4SGa1qe7ow/s160/IMG_3543-1.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYjmLbHHI/AAAAAAAAAAU/cwv7J3sXNMg/s1600-h/IMG_3543-2.JPG"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYjmLbHHI/AAAAAAAAAAU/cwv7J3sXNMg/s160/IMG_3543-2.JPG" /></a> </div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYjzuAMhI/AAAAAAAAAAc/l00dBKSgpjI/s1600-h/IMG_3544-1.JPG"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYjzuAMhI/AAAAAAAAAAc/l00dBKSgpjI/s160/IMG_3544-1.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYkNB437I/AAAAAAAAAAk/o-u69Cy0pms/s1600-h/IMG_3544-2.JPG"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_H9XbAlNdvtA/S2SYkNB437I/AAAAAAAAAAk/o-u69Cy0pms/s160/IMG_3544-2.JPG" /></a> </div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; CLEAR: both"><a href="http://picasa.google.com/blogger/" target="ext"><img style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BACKGROUND: 0% 50%; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial" border="0" alt="Posted by Picasa" align="middle" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif" /></a></div><p>These are two of several pairs of sketches done in preparation for a pair of commissioned paintings.
