New work

The Accordionist oil on canvas 28 x 16 in.

I'm posting new work daily to my website, hadleynorthrop.com, and getting my ArtSpan page up to date in preparation for Open Studios in one month. Probably all the paintings I'll be showing at Open Studios will be previewed on the ArtSpan website.

Also have been taking a community college sewing class - I love to sew, it makes a great counterpoint to painting because you follow a series of steps and don't have to make decisions with every move! Then again some paintings - the big, complicated ones - are like making a quilt, and the only way to finish them is stitch by stitch.
