This painting isn't for sale, but I wanted to post something so that my multitudes of blog readers (hehe) would know that I am still in fact painting. I visited Nils at his family's farm in Maine, and had lots of fun helping out (playing) with the goats. I helped pull this particular baby goat into the world. We named him Frederick. Sadly his mother, Kowhai, died from complications with a second baby. So I made this painting in memory of her. She was a very nice goat.
I painted it during my first biathlon-training stint in Lake Placid. Painting things like this is a great way for me to stay sane while living at the olympic training center there. I'm going to be spending quite a bit more time there this summer, so that should ensure more paintings! And I took lots of baby goat pictures, so there will probably be some more baby goat paintings too!
