The complex at Riverworks is constantly expanding up and out and becoming a great family site. We took our grandchildren for dinner and they enjoyed the variety of watercraft passing, including party boats and cruisers.
They didn't see this side until we were leaving so we took a few turns on the slowest Ferris wheel ever. It was magical. I've painted the LaBatts six pack twice and other views here too as there's always something worth studying

What's the big deal? After two months of recuperation from a knee replacement I'm finally driving myself to a painting event and seeing friends I've missed this Spring.
This is tiny Youngstown and the famous Jug, home of great music for decades.

Gosh we love Spring. The colors, greens and flowers, birds and warm weather are delightful. A pot of cool-loving pansies graced the porch for weeks before it was painted. Bluish blooms turned lavender and white faded to yellow. A still life that kept moving

This is part of a wall in my living room. It is dedicated to WNY artists with a few others added over the years. We try to support younger artists as well as established names and have had to slow down as I am not prepared to take anything down to mont new ones. There are two archways in this room and there is a collection of small ones over each arch. someday I will create a grid of al the paintings and label it with artist name, title and how I obtained the art.
