What would you like to do more of in the future? More cows, rodeo action scenes and some plein-air pastoral landscapes. And I LOVE commissioned work. They take me places I might not visit.

A conversation with Shannon Grissom: Part 8
How long does it take you to get an average painting? About a month, since I'm working on more than one at a time. Having that many in progress keeps up my productivity. I'm always in the mood for one of them.

Monday's agriculture website of interest: AMERICAN FARMLAND TRUST
Monday's website of interest for agriculture and farming enthusiasts is American Farmland Trust. Their mission is to help farmers and ranchers protect their land, produce a healthier environment and build successful communities. The group was founded in 1980 by farmers and conservationists concerned about the rapid loss of the nation's farmland to development. American Farmland Trust is a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to protecting the nation's strategic agricultural resources. Working with farmers, ranchers, political leaders and community activists, American Farmland Trust has helped to permanently protect more than a million acres of farm and ranch land.

Linda Blondheim talks more about her painting
Do you ever have goof ups or work you don't like? All the time. Those are the most instructive. I consider painting to be an ongoing study, never a finished skill set.
